Once a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole,so it went around loo-king for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete, it could only roll very slowly. It ad-mired the flowers, chatted with snails and enjoyed the sunshine along the way. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece.

Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll: Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to snails.

Sometimes we are more perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hope, dreams or something better. He will never know someone is loving him or someone is giving him something.

Even the best team loses one third of its games and even the worst team has its good days. Our goal is to win more games than we lose. When we accept that imperfection is part of being humans, and when we can continue rolling through life and enjoy it,we will have reached a wholeness.

We couldn't be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, kind enough to share happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can always live a wonderful life.
