"No one should abandon duties because he sees defects in them. Every action, every activity, is surrounded by defects as a fire is surrounded by smoke."
~ Krishna from The Bhagavad Gita
Maslow taught us that there are no perfect human beings and Rumi reminds us that "There is no worse sickness for the soul, o you who are proud, than this pretense of perfection."
The moment we allow ourselves to be less than perfect, we open ourselves up to the opportunity to grow...
Here's to many of those moments.

Withdrawal and projection are the natural outcomes of withholding. When you withhold, you keep inside yourself things that should be expressed. The very act of hiding these things takes you one step back from the relationship. A result of this withdrawal is that you will begin to project. In other words, you will begin to attribute to other people things that are actually issues of your own.
~ Gay & Katie Hendricks
