A friend’s blog (http://cinjoella.blogspot.com/) posed the question, “Has life ever been unfair but in a good way for you?” and the first thought that came to me was when I was in high school my mom worked for the candy shop, Ye House of John L.

I would go up to the attic where the chocolates were all lined up in rows…I quickly learned the meaning behind the differentiated swirls that told what fillings were inside. I certainly felt privileged then and on the receiving end of the positive “unfair” side of things. And I don’t remember getting sick of them…
