The next time you get tangled up
In thinking that you need to be more perfect,
Spend some time with a fruit tree
(These are plums, but other fruits work, too)
And notice how imperfect they can be,
Gnarled, lopsided, and yet beautiful
In their very imperfections — AND
They’re still producing tasty fruit
As well as blossoms for the bees.
Do consider the possibility
That your imperfections may be part of your charm...
