Many things to enjoy ...

Yesterday we had a semi-philosophical discussion and it all started with a barbecue-flavored potato chip.

A [munching on the chip]: Just think of all the different flavors out there! It’s incredible the variety of flavors that God created.
K: Yeah, He could have created just one flavor.
A: How boring would that be. (Although, we'd all probably be a lot skinnier.)
K: Everything could taste like … banana.
A: Or broccoli. Ugh.
K: Think of all the colors, too.
A: And textures.
K: And sounds.
A: Yeah, if there weren’t different sounds, there would be no music … and that would be very sad.
K: But you could also look at it this way – if there were only one of something (flavors, sounds, etc.), you would never know what you’re missing. Like, for instance, the bugs that can only see one color.
A: Yet another reason I’m glad I’m not a bug …
