"Ham or Eggs?"

Pigs and chickens are used for food. The pig sacrifices himself and gives ham; he is committed. The chicken just puts the eggs on a plate; he is involved. Thus, the question is "Are you committed or just involved?", "ham or eggs?"

Why do bad things happen to good people?

We ask that question so often, it’s become a cliché. But that’s because bad things do happen to good people. Constantly. You just have to hope that, when it’s your turn, you’ll know what to do - how to cope, how to persevere. But the truth is: you don’t know how you’ll react to your worst case scenario. None of us do. Not until it happens.
