Despite What Fools We Are

I was thinking of relationships.

I was also thinking about the time I swiped my debit card wrong. And the time I pressed the screen with my fingers instead of the pen.

And I was thinking about how I grumble and groan and lag about fixing my sisters� lunches or helping out around the house sometimes.

I was thinking about how I worry too much.

I was thinking about what clumsy creatures we are in our faith and devotion and how we don�t belong here.

I guess I was just thinking about everything. And how often we are fools. How often we are wretches. How often we fail or are inadequate in some way or another.

But that�s ok. Because we�ll be better someday. I know it.
