THE GRASS MAY BE GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE...

But, it still has to be mowed. Often I see others works of art as better than mine. I am not jealous, well maybe a little ;)...but mostly I see the flaws in my own works.  In striving for perfection, the greener grass, I often destroy what was working. Helen Van Wyk used to say make it, break it, and make it again. I enjoyed watching her tv shows! I'm not sure she was talking about the tiny flaws that I see that most do not.

I wonder how many of us look at our flaws, our imperfections, as giant craters instead of concentrating on what is right with us. What we have, what we can share, what we can do for others.
Enjoy today!

  1. That's very true for me in all areas of my life. Especially in my creations though, I see mistakes as glaring and I'm sure no one else would know they were there if I didn't tell them.
