问题详情:
We’ve been running for three days. Appointments, evening activities and athletic events. Now we’ve just returned from a field trip and there’s cooking to do for an event tonight.
I put on one of my husband’s T-shirts and a pair of sweatpants and start to work. I decide to ignore the table littered with books and coffee cups, the dishes that need washing and the floor that needs good cleaning. I’ll deal with the whole mess when I finish the cooking.
Suddenly I hear a knock at the door. “Hello,” calls a sunny voice. I look through the window and a beautiful friend waves her hand out there. She’s dressed from work and looks completely together (井井有条的), too together for this kind of mess. But she comes in. I cringe (畏缩) for the condition of my home, for the way I look and for the vulnerability of being a straight-up mess.
But to my surprise, my friend gives me a hug. And as I tidy the messy house, my friend and I chat freely and happily. As we chat, I find that I’m anything but ashamed.
Suddenly I realize that she’s looking at my heart, not my house. I can be real-life vulnerable with this friend because the friendship is true, and true friendships are not woven with judgment and criticism but with love. Standing there, relaxed and warmed from the inside, I’m thankful that I’m enjoying safe vulnerability, and that regardless of my mess, I am loved by my friend.
