There are so many opinions. The challenge is sifting through the mindless prattle to find opinions that carry weight and offer value. Hopefully I always leave you with something to think about. Something that gets your mind going and your heart feeling.

Things

Isn’t it amazing how no one is perfect?

At some point in our lives we are inevitably brought face to face with the fact that we have challenges… and sometimes those challenges swallow us whole.

We all are broken merchandise in some form or other. Some of us forget to do things. Some of us are obsessive about things. Sometimes we can not figure out why things are the way they are. And sometimes things get so out of control that we have an affair.

Then we are broken… but not beyond hope.

Things can be refound, recovered, repaired, or replaced. For a while and perhaps for a very long time, things can hurt… hurt like hell. And some things are never forgotten.

At some point we learn to live with the things we have found… and things we have lost. We learn to forgive and… accept. Accept that no one is perfect. We come to realize that “things” do not make us happy or sad. It is only our perception of things along the way, and how they relate to us and those we love.

“Love” is the only lasting balm… and cure… for “things”.
