My cinnamon and date honey cookies had taught me to love \u201cmess\u201d.
\n<\/span>My original plan for these cookies was totally different.
\n<\/span>In my mind they were scratched spirals of date honey, cinnamon and almonds.
\n<\/span>In practice they came out nothing but scratched, but the \u201cmess\u201d created was a game changer for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

The date honey puddles waiting on each bite had proven to me how much beauty there is hiding inside that \u201cmess\u201d.
\n<\/span>The outlines that I planned would have never caramelized in the same way.
\n<\/span>The crispiness these cookies have would have never be if it wasn\u2019t for that \u201cmess\u201d,
\n<\/span>So the whole is perfect in the eyes of the beholder and it has everything to do with our perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m in a time in my life where I\u2019m accepting and emotionally containing whatever the universe sends my way.
\n<\/span>Meanwhile reality is a bit far from the plans I\u2019ve had and I\u2019m still struggling to see the reason why the universe sent this to me.
\n<\/span>I\u2019m sure it\u2019s right and accurate for me, but in light of all of this I still can\u2019t see it.<\/span><\/p>\n

My cookies symbolize the storm of emotions within me,
\n<\/span>They\u2019re showing me the whole.
\n<\/span>They\u2019re showing me that a \u201cmess\u201d is pretty and a lot of good things can come out of it.
\n<\/span>And they\u2019re mainly showing me that when you recalculate your route you discover many wonderful things \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

So this recipe actually felt my emotions,
\n<\/span>It taught me a lot,
\n<\/span>It hugged me tight and encouraged me to look beyond the feeling of disappointment.
\n<\/span>It showed me exactly what I needed to see,
\n<\/span>And most importantly it proved that good things are just around the corner, you just have to take the first step towards them.<\/span><\/p>\n

I know that usually I give you words filled with endless optimis,
\n<\/span>And they are always genuine and honest,
\n<\/span>And this time too my words are honest,
\n<\/span>With the real feelings I carry in my heart,
\n<\/span>They have no filter or masks.<\/span><\/p>\n

These are home cookies,
\n<\/span>That warms up your body as well as your heart.
\n<\/span>They\u2019re here to teach us that every \u201cmess\u201d is here for a good reason,
\n<\/span>And that the outcome is beautiful and good; you just have to have the right perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can hear the crispiness of these cookies from a distance,
\n<\/span>The caramelized cinnamon and date honey are addictive and will sweep you away,
\n<\/span>They will stay with you for many days and leave you with a taste for more after each bite.<\/span><\/p>\n

Believe in the good that is yet to come and aspire for it, it\u2019ll come big time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Happy and lighted days of optimism to us all \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n
