What other people think about me is not my business.
I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for perfection is God's business.
I believe that the majority of times the scale tilts toward the good. It's this amazing thing that rolls on and if we get in the flow of it, that's God. And if we fight it, if we swim the other way, we're swimming away from the purest expression of this life.
