Life is Like…

Life is like a seed. It will never grow unless planted and nourished.

Life is like a box of chocolates. You'll never know what you're going to get.
Life is like a bagel. It's delicious when it's fresh and warm, but often it's just hard. The hole is the middle is its great mystery, and yet it wouldn't be a bagel without it.
Life is like eating grapefruit. First you have to break through the skin; then it takes a couple of bites to get used to the taste, and just as you begin to enjoy it, it squirts you in the eye.
Life is like a banana. You start out green and get soft and mushy with age. Some people want to be one of the bunch while others want to be top banana. You have to take care not to slip on externals. And, finally, you you have to strip off the outer coating to get at the meat.
Life is like cooking. It all depends on what you add and how you mix it. Sometimes you follow the recipe and at other times, you're creative.

Life is like a room full of open doors that close as you get older.
Life is like a puppy dog always searching for a street full of fire hydrants.
Life is like a poker game. You deal or are dealt to. It includes skill and luck. You bet, check, bluff, and raise. You learn from those you play with. Sometimes you win with a pair or lose with a full house. But whatever happens, it's best to keep on shuffling along.
Life is like a novel. You are the author and everyday is a new page.
Life is like photography. We develop from negatives.
Life is like money. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once.
Life is like an onion. You peel off layer after layer and sometimes you weep.
Life is like a whisper. If you only try and stop wailing you'll suddenly realize that it is there.
Life is like a pencil. You can be sharpened, you can correct mistakes, and you can leave a mark.
