Today’s post over at Feel More Better is dedicated to Monkey, the child I never could’ve imagined, before he came into my life, but who has patiently taught me to be a better human being. Both of my kids have done this for me, of course, but Monkey brought Hippie School into our lives, and the lessons there ripple outward and touch our entire family.
So today, it’s for him, for me, for every non-round peg who ever tried to be something else. Square pegs are awesome. Other shapes, too. I only wish it hadn’t taken me so long to figure it out. (I’m a slow learner… thank goodness my kid is patient with me.)
What you just expressed there? I want to bottle it and put it in our drinking water. If only it were that easy to get people to accept one another and the beauty inherent in our differences. :) Thanks for being beautiful.
I love this.
You’re so pretty.
“…round holes and square holes and octagonal holes and even the option not to go into a hole at all.”
Absolutely.
