Misses and messes, lost and
broken items, mistakes and misspoken words: that was life for three weeks. I
decided to philosophize and use the incidents as metaphors. When I cleaned up
the overflowed washer, I felt I was cleaning up a mess on the inside too. My
curiosity kept me busy saying “What is the lesson from this?” Stuff happens. I
do well to use the mishaps as ways to work on my old beliefs and attitudes.
Yes. . . That's what these missteps and mishaps are for, isn't it: learning. Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher, dear friend and neighbor.
