"When I was a little Boy, I remember one day in particular when she
had made breakfast. She musthave been very tired. My mom placed a
plate of eggs, and rather burned toast in front of my dad. Iremember
waiting to seeif anyone noticed. Yet all my dad did was reach forhis
toast, smile at my mom, and ask me how was I ready for school. I don't
remember what I replied, but I do remember watching him smear butter
and jam on that toast and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table, I remember hearing my mom apologize to
my dad for burning the toast. And I'llnever forget what he said:
'Baby, I love burned toast.'
Later that night, I went tokiss Daddy and I asked him if he really
liked his toast burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, 'Your
Momma works hard day after day and she's real tired. And besides a
little burnt toast never hurt anyone!'You know, life is full of
imperfect things…..and imperfect people. I'm notthe best football
player either.
What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each
other's faults – and choosing to celebrate each other's differences –
is the one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing,
and lasting relationship.
We should learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of your
lifeand lay them at the feet of Allah . Because in the end, He's the
only One who will be able to give you a relationship where burnt toast
isn't a deal-breaker! We could extend this to any relationship in fact
– as understanding is the base of any relationship, be it a
husband-wife or parent-child or friendship!!" - - ▓███▓
