Printed on the inside of an Almond Joy wrapper were the words,"Candy is a treat. Please enjoy in moderation,"and for the first time since starting my "not drinking in January" thing, I was overwhelmed with a disproportionate emotional response. I'm not sure if it was the idea of someone reading it and realizing, "hey, maybe I shouldn't JUSt eat candy" or if it was the raw simplicity of the prose, but i started crying.
