An Imperfect Life

Hi There, Welcome Back, It's Great To See You Again! Have You Subscribed To My Newsletter Yet? What Are You Waiting For? :)

A dear friend sent me a card with this beautiful poem.  I love it and wanted to share.  Thanks Ani.

“I wish for you an imperfect life,

and all the wonder that living can bring…

the wealth that comes from knowing loss,

the tears that find their way to laughter,

the joy that grows after the rain,

and the love, felt deepest,

by those who have been

carved by pain.

I hope that you can

value this imperfection, hold on to it,

so it gives you such comfort

that you will dare embrace the beauty

of all the imperfect lives that surround you,

And then you will be perfectly free

to step to the beat

of your own imperfect heart,

and you will have truly lived.”
