The note came from a friend, with only one sentence inside: This picture has me thinking of you, literally. She’d seen my teapot of blooming nasturtiums; it might have made a leaky mess as a teapot due to a small crack, but it made a wonderful plant pot.
I firmly believe that we aren’t put on this earth for a single purpose, and that our beautiful souls and our God given gifts may find surprising ways to shower love on our neighbors. But even more, I believe that our flaws, our cracks, will point us toward something beautiful that we may never have found without them.
Having learned much more from my failures than my successes, I can now learn from those small cracks can become a vessel for beautiful things.
Thanks for that thought, Johnna.

Hi Bill, I think you’ve been a vessel for some time now…peace, Johnna
