Cookie Cutter

Cookie Cutter

When baking cookies, you could use a cookie cutter. The cookie cutter could be of any shape imaginable. Regardless, you can get the same shape for everything you make.

If you do not use a cookie cutter, then the cookies are at the liberty of where they plop along with the consistency of ingredients within each individual cookie.

In a similar vein, not every person is cookie cutter constructed in life. Everyone is different based on their nature and nurture. Their experiences, mindsets, and opportunities change each person from each other. Keeping this part in mind allows each person to keep perspective and an opportunity to treat others in kindness with whatever they have been through or are currently trudging.

Compassion through empathy and perspective is key for countering a cookie cutter mentality.
