I had a conversation with someone today that made me feel good about one of my flaws. The person told me she had a really bad yesterday and among a lot of other things she managed to cut the same finger three times in one day. I told her not to worry there are people clumsier and that I managed to actually split my thumb open with a spoon.
I can’t remember how I did it, but I did cut open my thumb accidentally with a spoon. It takes talent to do that. I have to admit that I was having a panic attack at the time and the panic must have helped. I remember at the time that it felt like a low point. However, today when I look back on it, I realize that it makes me human. I am perfectly imperfect.
That’s what I wanted to share with this woman that I spoke with today. I wanted her to know that we aren’t alone, even when we have bad days. When we think we have reached a low point, there’s always someone who has been there, too and can empathize with you. The reason I know this is because I know that God created all of us perfectly imperfect.
The only step any of us has to take is to open our hearts to that miracle. When we do, then the whole world shine with God’s light.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
