GOOD FOR

 .

GOOD FOR SOMETHING


When we go to a laundromat


We expect to do our laundry


But not fix an ingrown toenail


Not make a tofu sandwich


Nor repair the clasp on an inherited necklace


No, when we go to a laundromat


Our expectations are realistic


The same thing applies to people


One person is a good listener but offers "tough love"


Another person can transfer computer files


But can't cook worth a bean


If we see people as just fine the way they are


We can see what they have to offer us


And what we can offer to them


Limitations and strengths exist in each person


This way we know who to ask for advice


And who can help with our computer issues


Without getting frustrated at normal human limitations


Or trying to adjust their personality to harmonize with ours.
