You don’t need to memorize a textbook. Just remember that everyone has a little dwarf inside them. Some days you feel like Happy, and some days you feel like Sneezy after a pepper shaker exploded.
So next time you watch Snow White, don’t just hum along. Notice how each dwarf is fully himself, flaws and all. They don’t try to be Docs; they just are. That’s a lesson for us all.
Go ahead, quiz your family tonight. Ask them, “Which dwarf are you right now?” You’ll get answers like “Dopey, because I can’t find my phone,” or “Grumpy, because someone ate my leftovers.” It’s instant giggles and deeper conversation.
Because life isn’t about being perfect. It’s about knowing that the world is full of Grumpys, Sleepys, and Dopeys—and that includes you. And that’s perfectly okay. Heigh-ho, indeed.
