we can start to view others with the same accepting and tolerant heart.
well i am back home after a quick trip for service across the state and i am a bit tired and worn out. that is to be expected, after all, i too am only human and without limitless strength and endurance.
so the reading today was about my expectations for myself, being mirrored in my expectations for others. i am far from perfect, yet some part of me expects that i am perfect and anything less is unacceptable. so if i follow the reading correctly that means that i will find fault with everyone and everything in the world around me. and that is true, on some days nothing and no one is good enough, they are, gasp, so human and life is so imperfect. and on days like today, when i accept myself as being just another human being full of frailties and imperfections, everyone else is okay too!
so gotta run to a meeting and catch up on some work. thanks for listening and rest assured that this imperfect being is doing the best he can to accept himself today.
