Life is like a lasagna, no really it is.
In the course of life we build layer upon layer of experiences, lessons, observations and emotions. Our responses to our world build a multi-layered world of good, bad and indifferent feelings which shape our personalities and define our potential for success or failure. Just as a lasagna is covered in marinara with cheese so must our religious beliefs, philosophies and attitude cover these layers to form the cohesive whole we call life.
