Steal the Bacon


Today was pretty funny. I got up after a night out way before everyone else. I cooked a mean breakfast of some curry chicken eggs, vegetables, and some bacon. Unfortunately, there were only three slices of bacon left, and I know how much the guy who I share food with loves bacon, so I had a tough decision to make. Should I kill the bacon or should I leave the bacon? In the end I decided to take one slice and leave two for him, because unless the world ends before tomorrow morning there will always be more bacon. I think most people understand this with material possessions that sharing will get you more places and more friends than doing otherwise, but when you stop and think about it, wouldn’t it be just as good to be sharing with out time, energy, and emotions? This might be the youth in me, but I know have a lot more minutes, and even more seconds to spare, so why shouldn’t I share them with other people who need them.
            I know some people might think that the connections between bacon and time are tenuous at best, but the way I think about it is, if you don’t do anything with either they will spoil.
