Lessons from My Microwave

Life was far different before the introduction of the microwave, decades ago.  And life will continue to change.  Oddly enough, our microwaves teach us about life:

• seconds matter
• we pay a price for convenience
• most tools are not universal 
• even in a contained space, big messes are hard to clean up
• fast isn't always best
• even if you prefer to be open in life, coverage is best in some settings
• we sometimes take for granted gifts that most don't enjoy
