Neither of us is perfect – Quote

“I’m not perfect. I don’t always say the right thing. I don’t always do or think the right thing. I run when I’m scared. I hide when I’m ashamed. I say too much. And other times I’m afraid to speak. I lose my way. I fall down. I push people away even when they are …
