CHAPTER 3 Touching Spirit Bear: Cake Analogy Activity Reread the part in chapter 3 where Garvey makes Cole eat the parts of a cake. This is an analogy (comparison of two things) about a cake and life. At first you may think what could they possibly have in common, but when you understand the comparison it makes sense. Cake: All of the individual ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs make the cake when all mixed together and baked. Without any one of those ingredients, the cake would not be the same. Life: All of the people and events in your life are the ingredients in your life. Some are good and some are bad. Without any one of those ingredients you would be a different person. What are the ingredients in your cake? Good Ingredients: Bad Ingredients Reflect on some of the good ingredients- how have they helped make you who you are? Reflect on some of the bad ingredients- how have they helped make you who you are? You probably wish some of them were never there, but how could those ingredients help you to be a better person?
