Perfection: a misdiagnosed state of being

Posted on June 5, 2023 Updated on May 30, 2023

I celebrate the fact that I am perfectly imperfect. I have no goal of ever being perfect. In my mind, perfection is greatly misdiagnosed when applied to human beings.

• How is human perfection measured? (Humans are involved)
• Whose standards are used? (Human standards)
• Why aim at perfection when doing so can cause comparison and strife that individuals can certainly do without? (Yeah, why?)

Comparison. Ugh, no good can come from such a practice. Whether you compare your life to other people’s lives on social media – or you compare yourself to your neighbor, friend, or enemy – more often than not the measuring rod’s results will not bend in your favor. Why? Because we are hard on ourselves and therefore in our minds will never measure up.

We are individuals and therefore distinctly different from everyone else!

We complement each other; filling in the blanks that quite naturally exist within each of us.

And THAT, my friends, is something worth celebrating: me helping you, you helping me. A definition of:

PERFECTION AT ITS BEST!
