AA Thought for the Day

There would be no music if high C were the only note,
no art if spectrum red were the only color,
no joy in pleasure if pleasure were the only feeling --
and, paradoxically, there would be no perfection without imperfection.
What does this mean to me? Well, first it means that I don't have to be perfect.
All I have to do is grow at a pace natural to me
-- and that is all I have a right to expect of others.
If I can remember these truths, then love -- real love,
as opposed to drunken sentimentality -- is finally within reach.
It is not stupid to accept myself and others complete with our imperfections.
It would be stupid not to.

Thought to Ponder....

Give me the courage to be imperfect.
