Another incredible day in New Orleans
I rode my bike out to the lakefront this morning and when I got to the lake it was so incredibly beautiful that it took my breath away. A big sail was white and majestic against the blue water. It made me so happy to be out on my bike that I kept a smile on my face despite the headwind that threatened to topple me.
I met the girls at the Mexican joint for a Corona and a chorizo and egg burrito – YUM YUM YUM!!! We sat outside and just grooved on the weather talking about exes and life in general. One thing I thought about later while riding home was a theme from our conversation – about how true growth comes from accepting the flaws in other people. The truth is that it is accepting the flaws in ourselves that really opens the door to enlightenment.
For a long time, I knew the rest of the world was flawed, but I didn’t think I was. When I realized I was not only capable of error but also had the capacity for HUGE fuck ups, then I really became more human.
