I have dropped “perfect”

Life is “trial and error”

You are a miracle…

Thich Nhat Hanh once said something to the effect that “the miracle is not that we walk on water, the miracle is that we walk on earth”. Since perfection prevents me from embracing life fully, I have chosen to “delete” it from my mind and stop comparing myself to any standards but my own….I am so much happier and laugh so much more…

Good morning Julie!

Just as The Moody Blues wrote “the fury of ten billion butterfly sneezes” I hear in your words this morning such force. “Fury,” out of context may sound harsh, so remembering “butterfly sneezes” as the forces of change may help.

More simply, “Brava” for ending this year with what seems a belly full of energy, optimism, creativity, and community spirit speaks volumes.

Almost Happy New Year! Definitely a happy day.
