Work in Progress

Work in progress.

A friend of mine posted the other day about her progress in a certain area. In her posting she referred to herself as a work in progress. I couldn't help but think, "Aren't we all?"

If we ever reach the point where we say we've finally gotten it all figured out, then maybe we need to go back to the drawing board. Throughout  life we will always be faced with new and different situations that will test our abilities. It's the whole you don't know what you don't know thing. 

I claim my work in progress status proudly, and hope that there will always be opportunities for me to stretch and grow. I don't ever want to think that I've got everything totally figured out. Not knowing is what makes life more interesting to me, because it's what motivates me to want to know.

So if you find yourself to be a work in progress don't consider that a bad thing. Embrace it, and gain the wisdom that it can bring.
