Everybody is a Genius.

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

~ Albert Einstein


I struggle often with perfection.  Two weeks ago, I had an emotional meltdown over the concept.  The only thing that could calm me down enough to stop the tears, level the voice and return to work was continuing to tell myself that "it doesn't have to be perfect."


I also struggle with other people's personality quirks.  If I am not perfect, I must also accept that nobody else is...even when they think they are...especially when they think they are.  Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. And too many people use confidence to hide their own interpretations of their shortcomings.


I may not be an expert on life, but I'm getting better at reflecting on it, and sharing the opinions my reflections help shape.  My opinion on this subject is that the world would be a better place if we all showed understanding of others first, before trying to educate them on why our interpretation of the world is better...
