Beauty in a wreck

Sometimes I wonder if anybody was perfect, close at least? Many claim to be better than another but that's about it. Well, I gotta agree, I'm no where close to perfection too. In fact, I don't think I'd ever be. :) I sometimes feel that it doesn't really matter if a person is perfect or not, come to think of it, God Himself knew that none of us could be perfect so He taught us through His Son, how to see through imperfection. I too struggle alot in this area especially when dealing with people who are inferior than me in a certain capability but through time, I've learnt how to compliment people like this to make the most out of an imperfect scenario.

The key, I figured was to refrain ourselves from judging another person. Mother Theresa said that if we keep judging, we'd have no time to love. I totally agree with that statement, given all those lives she has touched through love. Loving someone is not an easy task. To love, you've gotta see through not only the good parts but also the ugly ones, the ones people normally choose to ignore. This will lead to wholesome love and what a difference does love make in one's life, come to think about it, if there's one thing people would want the most in life, it would be to be loved, not for who we see them to be but for who they really are :)

Why am I talking about this now you may ask, well I've been helping out a little to coach a football team and I learnt that although they're not good footballers yet, they have a veryy good heart. We lost a game on Saturday and we spoke a little about our expectation and stuff like that but what really hit me was their commitment to the team, to one another, to me. I know alot of people look up to me but I always brush it off, choosing to ignore them instead of helping them. I always thought that there was always someone better who could help them but I guess I thought wrong. These guys just seemed to be so attached even in this short period and I know deep inside, I could make a difference, not only as their coach but as a brother, a friend who would not pass judgement but will accept them for who they are and will aspire them to be better. :) Just pray that these guys will turn out to be not just awesome footballers but also awesome men la, that'll will be my biggest wish for them :)

As for me, life is good, apart from a few things that been happening. Sometimes, I wish someone would just look me in the eyes and know that something is not right. Sometimes, I wish no one would notice. Confusion they say is tough, but having someone there for me who is willing to walk with me through all this is just priceless and thank God, I've got that person. That person where I can go anywhere with, eat anything, talk anything with and not having that feeling of being judged, instead, feeling accepted and appreciated for me being me. *You know who you are, I don't know what I'd do without you la, really :)

So yea, thats about it for now and if I have to say something, I'd wana encourage all those who are reading this to compliment imperfection instead of condemning them cus that way, no one is left out as not good enough :) ohh and yea, I'm losing the beer belly! next up, 6 packs! :P
