misfit
i went to the Great Junk Hunt in Monroe the other day. a glory everyone should experience. but i left feeling really disappointed. and i couldn’t figure out why.
through just a few words with my son, i remembered that i tried on some rings and found two that i really loved. but they were off in the sizing.
it took me to my growing up years where the resources around me just didn’t fit. no matter how much i wanted them to. no matter how hard i tried. and no matter how much i tried to convince myself that they did.
i kept trying on those rings over and over. the woman behind the counter probably thought i was crazy! i wanted them to fit so badly.
but they just didn’t.
and finally i accepted it.
i accepted everything.
