Don't Look For Flaws,

Don't look for flaws you go through
life.
And even when you find them
It is wise and kind to be somewhat blind
And look for the virtue behind them
For the cloudiest night has hint of the
light
Somewhere in the shadows hiding
1t is better far to hunt for star
Than the spots on the sun abiding.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whim to the letter.
Some things must go wrong your whole
life long,
And the sooner you know it the better
1t is folly to fight with the infinite
And go under at last in the wrestle.
The wiser man shapes into Gods plan
AS the water shapes into the vessel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
