“In the country of the blind a one-eyed king can still goof up.”
~ Anonymous ~
For years I tried to control everything and everybody.
There was a correct code of behavior, and everything had its place. I felt responsible for the universe and everyone in it.
Today I can laugh at my mistakes and the mistakes of others. When I catch myself organizing the world, I remember where the “perfect” yesterdays got me—and I laugh. God made me with a navel and flat feet; I would have preferred something different, but there is a loving message in my imperfections—it is okay to goof up! I relax in the humor of being human.
Thank You for making me an angel in the dirt.
