My mother is my email buddy and she passed this one on to me. I usually won’t post these, but in the spirit of the upcoming elections, I couldn’t resist. Surgeons, take note, you might pick up a few tips.

Love the story. As always, love the illustration, too. (Never did well at that game — even before I drank a pot of coffee a day my hands shook too bad.)

if one was perfect .. everyone would love that one .. but what’s important is to show the same love and respect .. to someone who is not perfect .. that requires more energy and dedication
