flaws

[Alabama Scouter]

While meeting with another Scoutmaster not too long ago, I noticed his flag stand. It was made of 2 x 6's, notched to interlock, with a hole drilled in the center of the "X". You've seen them.

 

The stands did their job, and well. I was surprised when my Scoutmaster friend pointed out the flaw of the stand. The radius edge of one of the parts was on the wrong side!

While the stand had a flaw, it still did its job, and well.

 

Remember, people are sort of like that stand, too. We all have flaws, but we don't have to let them stop us from doing our jobs, to the best of our ability.
