Not too long ago I was around a person that I have known for awhile but I don’t see too often. Now I don’t know about you but when you don’t see someone very often you don’t get to really know about their faults and problems. It’s so easy to get wrapped up in what you think their life is like that you don’t notice they have issues just like the rest of us. This usually can be a problem and in a little way it is but it’s also, in a weird way, helped me as well.
At first, I came away from the get together feeling a little discouraged (financially, personality, parenting, etc) but then God showed be that it could be turned into an opportunity to improve my own attitudes and life. See I envision this person making better decisions then I may make at times. When I get into a situation lately I am asking myself “Would XXXX handle it this way?”. A kind of WWJD mantra (only no worship!).
I am finding myself making some better decisions since I have encountered this person. I really don’t think they are perfect, but I think how they might let something play out with their personality traits and it seems to work. Crazy huh?
I have come to realize that I don’t wanna know their imperfections, problems, and faults. I am comfortable holding this person in high esteem and making some better decisions in my own life. I don’t feel a need to be perfect because I know they aren’t. I just don’t have the details of how they aren’t and that’s just fine with me. I just needed to be challenged and this has done it. So for now…I don’t wanna know.
Have a “Clueless” Day! 🙂
