The Meaning of Cake

She stared into the slice of cake, as it sat unenthusiastically beside her coffee.

It seemed cake was everywhere.

Cake had been her downfall. Or so she'd thought.

She remembered back to a time when cake was rare.

When the very mention of cake lit a smile.

A time when cake meant something.

But now there was too much. There was too much of everything.

And the too much had caused her to forget the experience of the world.

As she stared into the slice, she dreamed of a time of not-too-much.

Where, once again, cake would mean something.
