There is this Italian place that I really like in my area, great homemade pasta. I went the other night and had a deliciously huge meal. Too big to finish, in fact, so I brought the leftovers home and anxiously anticipated eating them for lunch the next afternoon (read: mid-morning).
When I was sitting on the couch consuming my pasta with veal meatballs I found a piece of plastic in my food. More specifically in my mouth after I put the food in there. I just removed the plastic and kept eating. That pasta was too damn good to stop eating over a little piece of plastic wrap. Besides, track record stands that the place rocks my world enough to not worry about one mistake.
It's funny; sometimes when you love something a great deal you're willing to overlook some of its shortcomings and continue on, knowing that as a whole the experience is too good to possibly be destroyed by a tiny ___(insert imperfection, piece of plastic, mistake, etc. here)______.
Something to think about and apply where necessary,

I can relate to this.
I once ate some really fantastic Mexican food but discovered a hair in one of the tacos!!
But they were so good I ate those damn tacos anyway!!
Ughh!

I love the point you are making...sometimes you have to look away, or you will lose more than your lunch.
exactly. And sometimes this applies with the people in our lives, too. Something can be, on a whole, wonderful just like the pasta. Therefore, we need to remember to overlook the imperfections or mistakes here and there because on average we're dealing with a pretty great person (or pasta, or burrito.. etc) and nothing is always perfect all of the time. Like I said in the post-apply where necessary:)
