The Healing Sugar

Popping the last chocolate in my mouth, I’m done eating sweets until, until…  The temptation has been non-stop in the winter months.  Sweets can take away depression and wonderful when consumed in the dark (and alone).  I remember being inconsolable at a friend’s funeral.  As we walked out of the church the ushers handed everyone a candy.  I stopped crying right then and there.

And of course Valentine’s Day is loaded with sugar.  It may be the sweetest day of the year.  Just thinking of it makes my teeth ache.  But perhaps it is because of all the sugar I’ve been having.  My dentist will smile when he sees me.  I’m sure of it.
