I've often put my self in situations that are logically beyond my abilities. Sometimes I fail, but often, I rise to the occasion. <br />The other of the two is being able to meet great teachers.Togeikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03718418401458480928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4440971217410694473.post-39748751252724897722015-01-04T09:46:59.843-08:002015-01-04T09:46:59.843-08:00Good one, Dr T.

Not so much thinking about pottery this morning, but in general, that so often, I tried to be perfect, but whatever I did, it was not good enough for my late mother... and now slowly learning that sometimes I do know what I'm doing, it is good enough, but best of all, know there is always room for better, for "glorious, amazing mistakes".
