Chew through the bones

Anchovies have bones, and yes, bones are hard: chew through them.

Bones are natural. You can’t avoid them. And like other hard things in life you cannot escape or control-alt-delete them, and it doesn’t do any good to pretend they don’t exist.

You’ll experience some hard things in your life. Everyone does.

Remember that there is beneficial calcium in anchovy bones.

And there’s beneficial grit that you gain from getting through hard things.

Keep on going. Keep on chewing.
