imperfection

So this week I had someone confess to me that when they first met me, they were intimidated. They didn’t want to talk to me because they felt like I was “too perfect.” Slam the breaks. What?!? If you think I am perfect, you must not really know what’s going on inside all this. I don’t have […]
