limits and potentials.
"Each of us arrives here with a nature, which means both limits and potentials. We can learn as much about our nature by running into our limits as by experiencing our potentials. The God I know does not ask us to conform to some abstract norm for the ideal self. God asks us only to honor our created nature, which means our limits as well as our potentials. One dwells with God by being faithful to one's nature. One crosses God by trying to be something one is not." - Parker Palmer, Let Your Life Speak
