A study was done where young children were taken into a room and given a marshmallow. They were told they could either eat the marshmallow then, or wait until the adult returned, at which point they would be given another one. The adult would then leave them alone for 15 minutes. The children didn't know they were on camera. Here are some of their reactions:
As far as I know, I was never a subject of this experiment, but I have a pretty good idea what I would have done if I had been. This picture, taken of me at age 1, pretty well sums it up. That explains a lot, doesn't it?
That is the funniest thing! I would have been like that very sniffy boy and smelled it forever. And then I probably would have gone on ahead and eaten yet. I guess it says a lot about both of us! LOL
. . . And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

How funny! I do that with chocolate until it gets the best of me! ;-)
