The news had been covering a politician who had tarnished his "goody two shoes" image with some not so good behavior, and I was thinking of the concept in general -- about people putting so much effort (if it is effort) into being "good, ""good enough," "nice," "hip," "stylish,""perfect hostess,""non-offensive (to anyone)" and the like...being "so good"...."too good" to sustain or likely be real...kind of like "something has to give."
So my angel here grew such big wings, that he couldn't support them anymore, and they fell off.
Yes, sometimes it is enough to do it ok, not perfect. It is ok to not agree, to not be docile, to not turn the other cheek, etc. Yes, it is still nice not be be mean, but flitter about on normal wings, not ones too big to support.
