I was creating note cards from my butterfly photos and noticed this one, though beautiful, has a torn wing. I thought about how so many of us have some kind of physical difficulty, or imperfection, but just go on with our lives. It inspired me to write a small poem that appears on the inside of this inspirational card.
“We are none of us perfect…” by MaryMcandrew

We Are None of Us Perfect
We are none of us perfect,
From the outside perhaps,
Torn and tattered.
Broken
Parts not working.
But on the inside
Who knows us better
Than ourselves?
Or those who love us?
We are all bright shining
Lights of love and beauty!

(The butterfly is a Red Admiral, I took it while in a garden in England.)
