in spite of – redux
I keep coming back to this…
Loving people IN SPITE OF who they are.
I so much appreciate people telling it like it is, shining light on the ordinary, saying what everyone knows, but for some reason, no one has spoken up and said it. With intelligence and humor.
People are ridiculous.
Don’t pretend to try to love people as they are.
Instead, love them in spite of who they are.

Like everyone, I have different sides. Counselor, photographer, writer, cooker of food – both spicy and plain, and seeker of truth and happiness. I have always taken an interest in the unassuming things that pass us by – both heard and seen, both ordinary and not so ordinary. They are all sacred and beautiful in some way.
