My mother is not a model. She is not perfect. That awareness is part of learning to love someone. Predicting the actions of someone is an act of love. We persist, even when we get it wrong. That's the beauty of love.

We come to love not by finding a perfect person but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

We come not to love a perfect person...but to love an imperfect person perfectly.

Perfect love sometimes does not come until grandchildren are born

Not a perfect woman but you're perfect for me.

We have material to write about because we're not perfect in any way. We have all fallen. The only way we can say these things is because we are 100 percent confident that this is the truth. I've definitely found it to be the one truth in my life.
