[quote=Anonymous]My mom was the leader of our Girl Scout troop, and one time, the girls all made beads from clay that would then be cooked in our oven and painted to make necklaces. Well...something happened in between the scout meeting and our oven, because all of the creations the girls made got crushed in the commute and smushed into a giant blob of clay. My mom's first reaction was, "fuuuuuuuuuuuuudge!" and she asked me to start re-forming the beads so we could fire them up. About two hours into that, she said to me, "you know what...I think this is an important lesson for me and the girls that despite your best efforts, sometimes sh*t happens." She went to the next meeting, explained it to everyone, apologized, brought some pizzas, and they couldn't have cared less about the beads. My mom was always very high strung, so this stuck out in my memory as an important lesson of letting some things go, even if it risks disappointing people. [/quote]
