My name is Abbe. I am a writer, a mother, a wife, an analyst, a baker and a mediocre cook. I’m a good driver. I read tarot cards.

I’ve decided I’m done feeling like I’m not good enough.

Voltaire said, “The best is the enemy of the good.”

I like Shakespeare’s take, also: “Striving to better, oft we mar what’s well.”

I usually say “The perfect is the enemy of the good.”

This blog is an exploration of learning that failing isn’t some final state, that perfection can’t be attained, and that the win is in just taking the journey.
