Beyond the Visible: How We Are Connected: By Our Plastic Parts — 12 Comments

  1. I just had (almost) the same experience — Cuisinart for 40+ yrs — motor humming perfectly — but those damn plastic parts just weren’t holding it together anymore. After I did the math to replace them, I found that it was cheaper to buy a new one. I placed the old wonderful machine (w/ all the plastic parts, whole & broken) in a box & put it in the alley. It lasted 5 min.– at most. When my new machine came (yes, I did the Amazon thing too, w/ lots of guilt) I fortunately didn’t have the rebellious plastic parts make a run for it & scatter all over my kitchen floor, like you. But then again I didn’t get a chance, like you, to connect w/ another human being, obviously in need of an angel to unload on to — and there YOU were, dearest Susan, her angel. Love your humanity.

    I have told you so many times how your words written or spoken touch so many people so many ways. You my friend are special! Keep doing what you do. I know there are challenges in your life but you have a gift with your words. Never forget that!!

    It’s hard to admit these things, out of embarrassment of exposing our flaws though others can often see them plain as day, regardless. Having been raised by two totally different parents – the one looking into the heart and embracing the beauty inside, the other critical with high standards – I struggle and am thankful for both. On the one hand, they have allowed me to be better, less sloppy, to be joyful but not over the top while disillusioning myself. To take risks but not those leading me to harm. And, if so, the ability to climb out of the misery, to walk away and embrace the light. We are all a sum of these parts – selah. ❤

  3. What a great story teller you are! And your positive influence in the midst of horror and chaos is heart warming!! Love you!

  4. Sue, you can’t help it. You’re just a wonderful human being. Even people you don’t know depend on your loving wisdom. Now go take a walk and smell the spring air. 🙂
