I Can Read Lips...Not

I was sitting in a room, meditating (almost dozing off, actually, I was so tired). Across the room, I noticed a couple of women chatting with each other. Though I couldn't hear them, one of them moved their lips in such a way that it seemed like she said, "Oh my gosh, it's Nick Totten." She didn't look familiar to me at all. It turned out, it was a total stranger, and I had misinterpreted her. Talk about bad lip reading!

For a while, I have believed that I am slightly better at lip reading then the average person because I have a slight hearing loss. Today, I am grateful for this small, silly, humbling experience. I now know that I am not an expert in lip reading, and that's okay with me. :)
