You took me from reflection, to laughter, to tears. I too am filled with sin. Missing the mark of God's perfection only proves that we are perfectly imperfect human beings.

For now, I am just so tickled by the first one! I was lulled by the philosophical tone of it, so when the arrow hit the neighbor, I just broke up laughing.
