Wrong as two left feet

If you’re a parent, you know that sometimes your littles fall out about simple things. They can’t get a button fastened, or a shoe tied. Often when first learning, they confuse the right shoe for the left or vice versa.  They’ll try for a moment, realizing somethings wrong but they don’t want to ask for help. Eventually the frustration grows and the humility comes and they are crying and getting on your nerves or they ask for help. You look over and immediately diagnose the issue. You see what you need to change or remove to fix not only their shoe, but their current emotional state. You chance their shoes around, you tie them, and they’re off to the races. Their tears are dry because  you gave them clarity and solved their issue even tho originally they were stubborn. 

I used to want certain things and people to be a part of my life. Trying to make them work and holding onto my pride cause me, and others pain, wasted time and other things.  I questioned God about why he was removing ppl that i once loved from my life. He saw that i was frustrated, because i was trying to force things that didn’t fit. What i wanted wasn’t wrong, but the way i was trying to force it was. Once i began to see things the way he did, his removal lead to my clarity and now I’m off to the races without the things that would have tripped me up or slowed me down because my feet hurt. Forcing what’s not meant for us is as wrong as, well....two left feet.
