Chocolate Therapy

Directions:
Step One:
Open the wrapper of your chocolate therapy gift by removing the purple ribbon. Tie the purple ribbon to a knob or post to declare to the world the color of your heart, purple. You've been wounded.
Step Two: Remove the mug and fill with warm but not boiling water. Take care that the water is warm enough to melt chocolate. Not too cold, not too hot, just warm enough to melt hard hearts and soothe the soul.
Step Three: Open the package of chocolate mix and let it dissolve slowly in the warm but not boiling water. Taste. Add more chocolate if necessary. This is a large mug, it may require two, possibly three chocolate packages. Contemplate how sisters know things, like how did she know you needed the extra large mug today for an extra dose of Chocolate therapy to soothe your inner wound.
Step Four: Top the chocolate potion with the right mixture of marshmellows-- two pink ones, two white ones. Ponder the wisdom of your 8 year old son, 'boys can eat a pink marshmellow as long as they eat a white one with it.' Give a child two of your marshmellows: a pink one and a white one.
Step Five: Inhale the aroma of chocolate. Stir as the Marshmellows melt allowing your wounded heart to melt into a gooey lump.
Step Six: Continue breathing deeply as you sip the chocolate mixture allowing God to heal and reshape your heart.

AAAAHHHHHH! All better now.

Now call your sister or a dear friend and share the healing story of your heart.

Now that sounds like the perfect solution to the first cold day of fall. I think I shall have to indulge in some chocolate therapy this evening for myself!
