Alright, alright, alright - let's dive right in, folks. Welcome to another episode of Fennell's Fables. I'm your host, Trey Fennell, and today, we're gonna talk about something a little bit different -
You ever notice how everyone's become a health expert these days? I mean, seriously. One minute, you're scrolling through your Facebook feed, and the next thing you know, your Aunt Linda's posting about how she cured her arthritis with nothing but celery juice and a positive attitude. I mean, come on Linda, I saw you at the family barbecue last week, double fisting hot dogs -
But it's not just Aunt Linda, oh no. It's everyone. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry with a smartphone thinks they're the next Dr. Oz. They're all out here, posting their turmeric lattes, their kale smoothies, their bowls of quinoa that look like a bird's nest. And I'm just sitting here wondering when food stopped being, you know, food -
Remember when a sandwich was just a sandwich? Now it's a deconstructed, gluten-free, artisanal experience. I'm sorry, but when did bread become the enemy? Last time I checked, the only thing dangerous about a loaf of bread is if someone used it as a weapon -
And then there's politics. Oh boy, don't even get me started on politics. You've got one side that's so far left they're practically falling off the edge of the earth, and the other side...well, let's just say they wouldn't know progress if it hit them in the face with a loaf of gluten-free bread -
But that's the beauty of it all, isn't it? We're all just stumbling through life, trying to figure it out as we go. And if Aunt Linda wants to drink celery juice and Joe from down the street wants to eat nothing but quinoa, who am I to judge? After all, one person's gluten-free artisanal experience is another person's double fisting hot dogs at a family barbecue.
And that, my friends, is the moral of today's Fable. We're all just trying to get by in this crazy, mixed-up world. So, let's cut each other some slack, have a laugh, and remember - your way of doing things isn't the only way. There's a whole lot of people out there with their own ideas, their own beliefs, their own bowls of quinoa -
So, here's to everyone out there, doing their best, living their truth, and making every day a little bit brighter. And to those of you who aren't - well, there's always room for improvement. But in the meantime, keep doing you. Because at the end of the day, that's all any of us can really do.
