You always do. I've never known a kinder person.
Well, I was just getting around to explaining that... Flaws. Yes, we all have them presumably. Now for mine. This is a very juicy story for those who enjoy good gossip. You see, for years---
VERY many years---I didn't know first hand what it was like to have those "flaws" everyone else seemed to proudly bandy around like a special badge of human honor... Then one day it finally happened to me. A young lad, a stranger on the street, ran up to me and blurted out a pair of questions.
"Do you have any flaws? Have you ever made any mistakes?" The seemingly innocent stranger shouted his questions at me in a most unexpected way!
Of course, the whole experience took me by surprise. Startled, I shouted yes, despite that answer being so miserably incorrect. And
that was the day that I finally knew precisely what it was like to be wrong. I finally had a flaw that I too could wear like a special human badge of honor.
And how about the rest of you people? Any flaws or am I the only one?
