Even Our Cracks are Useful


Even Our Cracks are Useful

Once upon a time a water pot complained to its owner about the cracks and flaws it had.  “If only I was perfect.  I could better water your garden.”

The gardener took the pot for a stroll along the path.  “Look at the path on your way home every day from the well.  Do you see the flowers?  Your cracks and flaws allowed the water to fall and soften the ground.  I came along and planted seeds, and now we have beauty as never before, all because of your cracks and flaws.”


The wise reader will see the point of this story.  And to help you … our cracks and flaws are useful too.  We may not see that now, but it is true.  Beauty leaks out when we least know it is happening.

That is all.


Something to think on,
in less than one minute.
