Embracing (Accepting) Imperfection...!!!

Nice Instance shared by a Girl which is so true in real life...!!!

 

"When I was a little girl, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner

every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had

made breakfast after a long, hard day at work.

 

On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and

extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if

anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast, smile at my

mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him

that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that

toast and eat every bite!

 

When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom

apologize to my dad for burning the toast. And I'll never forget what he

said: 'Baby, I love burned toast.'

 

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if He

really liked his toast burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, 'Debbie,

your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired. And

besides-a little burnt toast never hurt anyone!' You know, life is full of

imperfect things....and imperfect people. I'm not the best housekeeper or

cook.

 

What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other's

faults - and choosing to celebrate each other's differences - is one of the

most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting

relationship.

 

And that's my prayer for you today. That you will learn to take the good,

the bad, and the ugly parts of your lives and lay them at the feet of GOD.

Because in the end, He's the only One who will be able to give you a

marriage where burnt toast isn't a deal-breaker!

 

We could extend this to any relationship in fact - as understanding is the

base of any relationship, be it a husband-wife or parent-child or

friendship!! "
