Tolerance of the Fallen
Those who have fallen
are often more tolerant of
others' lapses
than those who have
always remained standing

my mother said 'there are no saints.. only the untempted'

Love your mom's phrase
It's easier to walk in others shoes, when having holes in one's own, too.
I have a friend very much
I have a friend very much like this. He does not hold the Christian Scriptures in the faith I have, yet seems to believe it is alright to remind me of my failures in my responsibilty to them, even when that failure is in his defective perception. From Eliot's final play, The Elder Statesman, I borrow the appellation for my erstwhile friend.
