"I myself am made entirely
of flaws, stitched together
with good intentions."
~Augusten Burroughs
So love it when I run into
words of wisdom that mirror
my own feelings . . . and then
to find they are penned by one
of my fave authors!
Wow! Just WOW!!!
But, let's ask the questions . . .
Does this mean I'm supposed
to try and do better? Or is it
simply a task of recognition
and self-acceptance?
I do recall someone saying
something along the lines of
the truth is always in there
somewhere.
Maybe then, it boils down to
self-acceptance, but still making
the effort to grow a bit each day!
For moi, I'm running at about
a hundred years old and still so
full of flaws . . . I do try . . .
guess I just don't get it!
Maybe I'll just work on self-
acceptance rather than self-
improvement! Ha!
