Spare Me Perfection

Spare me perfection. Give me instead the wholeness that comes from embracing the full reality of who I am, just as I am. ~ David Benner

I’ll never be perfect. I can’t read my own handwriting, and usually words are mispelled in anything I composed. I don’t have an accent… I talk with a drawl! Despite Mother’s telling me for years to sit like a lady, I don’t! I’m neither polished not graceful and I’ve quit trying to be. That’s okay, though! Spare me perfection. Give me instead the wholeness that comes from embracing the full reality of who I am, just as I am.
