Edie Brickell confessed that philosophy is the talk on a cereal box. I usually don’t pay attention to what’s written on the box apart from the brand name. I like to know what I am about to eat. After I pour my cereal, I usually put the box back in the cupboard.
But my mind happened to be elsewhere this morning.
I was mulling over a problem. I like to pace when I think. I was pressed for time, so this morning I had to pace, eat, and think at the same time. I know, I know, men aren’t suppose to able to do more than one thing at a time. But hey, sometimes you have to be different.
In mid-stride, the writing on the cereal box caught my attention. In big purple letters was the question:
“What am I?”
Hmmm…
I’ve previously wrestled with the question of “Who am I?” But I’ve never stopped to consider, “What am I?”
I am reminded of a poster I saw a long time ago. It had a picture of a monkey scratching his head. The caption read: “Just when I’d figured out the answers to life, they changed the questions.”
“They” changed the question on me this morning.
