There's a lot of things I'm good at. I can eat ice cream like it's no one's business, I know how to properly laugh at people who fall, I can time my commutes perfectly, to ensure I'll be five to fifteen minutes late, and I am an absolute professional at convincing my co-workers that donuts are good for the soul. Oh, there's a lot I'm good at, but there's only one thing I'm better than good at, something that I can confidently say I'm a perfectionist at, a trait I will forever have confidence in and that's LOVE. "Why," you wonder? "How," you ask? Well, it's simple; as simple as how good I am at things.
When I love someone/thing I'm able to do a few things better than most people who haven't quite perfected the art of loving and that is [drum roll please]:
I don't allow the people I love to forget their beauty when they are feeling ugly.
I don't permit them to neglect their wholeness when they are feeling broken.
I don't let them emphasis their flaws when they've made a mistake.
I don't ignore their innocence when they're guilty and ...
I sure as hell don't let them disregard their purpose when they are confused.
I sure as hell don't let them disregard their purpose when they are confused.
Now, don't even try to compete with me because I told you I'm good at a lot of things.
