I love cupcakes, and really that is an understatement. What I really love about cupcakes is the frosting. And really that's what makes a cupcake a cupcake. Without the scrumptious frosting, it'd be like a muffin or what ever a piece of cake is without frosting. But you, of course, can't have a cupcake without the cake. It wouldn't be a cupcake unless it had cake under the layer of yummy frosting.
The cake and frosting go hand in hand. The cake and frosting work together. To truly enjoy a cupcake, there must be a balance. There shouldn't be to much cake or to much frosting in each bite.
Then there are those people that like more frosting and less cake, or those who like more cake and less frosting. How do you find your balance? You must test the waters. Or in this case, test and eat some cupcakes. It's really a piece of cake.
Cupcakes are like life. One must have a balance. You don't what to much of the frosting or to much of the cake. Each person has his or her own balance; each person is different. Some people are more cupcake compatible with each other than they are with others.
The cake is the part of life that is stable, rational, & logical. It is necessary to life, so that a person may survive a day longer. The frosting is the of part of life that is irrational, fun, and it gives life it's spice. It allows you, through reason, to live and have fun.
A cupcake isn't as good when there is to much of one part and not enough of the other. This should be kept in mind when living one's life. A person's life could become toxic or become unbalanced with to much of one element. Life wouldn't be as good if there wasn't a balance, and we all what to enjoy life just like we all strive to enjoy the perfect cupcake.
Thanks for reading my ramblings on life and cupcakes, and how they are intertwined. Remember: Life is like a cupcake.
Peace, love, bake on.

Andrea, I really enjoyed this post!!! I can really see what you mean here. I think the imagery of the cupcake and the frosting really sums up life! The way you described something so deep as the meaning of life itself with something as simple as a cupcake really hit home for me, as I too love the tasty treat that is the cupcake. You have changed the way I look at this delicate pastry, as well as life itself. You rocked that post!!! Keep it up!!!

I'm glad you enjoyed this post! I'm happy you understood where I was coming from. I wasn't sure anyone would truly understand where I was coming from. I was hoping to change the way someone (anyone really) looked at this delicate pastry that is known to the world as the cupcake. I can't believe that I changed the way the you look at the cupcake, let alone life itself. Thanks for reading, and please come back to read! I truly appreciate it.
