"the greatest enemy of ordinary daily goodness and joy is not imperfection, but the demand for some supposed perfection or order."
Richard Rohr, Devotional March 22nd
My mother wanted everything to be perfect. But when we are trying so hard or insisting that things be perfect, we set people up for depression. We give them a task that they can never fulfill.
Life is not perfect. People are not perfect. When we can become comfortable with imperfection, we can relax and find the joy.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
