Perfectly Perfect

Our imperfections are what make us human
They are the parallels between what we deem “normal” & what we find interesting, perhaps peculiar
So many of us, focus our efforts on our flaws
We drill so hard to be better at things that we don’t have the passion to fulfill the effort
So, why even try?
Does this make us unmotivated?
No, it actually does not
It gives us more room to breathe, to stand on our own feet & recognize that not all who wander are truly lost, we just haven’t found where it is our hearts are taking us
Our excitements lead us on our journeys to let go of so much that we take on, learning to be ok just being
In life, our time is so fragile though too many consider that there is so much of it
Time that we will never get back to spend focusing & tormenting ourselves over people & careers that we don’t even like
So, why even try?
Many discuss fear as a predicator to growth, but I beg to differ
I challenge this thought & replace it with possibility
Our possibility to acquire obtain & do just about anything our hearts truly want
So, why do we consistently stand in our way to achieve what it is we desire?
It’s not fear, it’s not time, it’s not even excuses
It’s our imperfections that create humanities demise
Our imperfections that help cultivate an individual’s mind to see what we are not capable of seeing
Though our imperfections lead us through many twists & turns
We will always be able to circle around to see life through our peculiar lens
To beat to a drum heard only by us, the dreamers
Our mind is a truly beautiful thing
Embrace imperfection & it will embrace your life
