Embracing imperfection

I hate when you’re disappointed in yourself and people tell you that it’s okay because it’s not. It’s not okay because everyday you have to wake up from this perfect world of your dreams and you realize that you’re still the same person. You’re still just as flawed and imperfect as before and you have to deal with that. You’re going to quit trying to do the things you can’t do because that’s what you’ve always done. It’s definitely not okay, but that can change if you put your mind to it. There may be a voice in your head discouraging you, telling you that you can’t make a difference in the world even though that’s the only goal you’ve ever had, but you can prove that voice wrong. Then you can tell that voice to go bother someone else because you know your worth. You may be imperfect, but imperfection is beautiful. Why try to be perfect when you can be yourself and still be amazing? If you want to change, change for the better, but don’t lose yourself because nothing is as bad as losing the person that you are. You might reach a point where you’re drowning and you’ve almost given up, but don’t lose hope and don’t lose sight of the things that make you a beautiful human being. Appreciate the good things about you and accept your flaws because without them, you wouldn’t be human. Embrace imperfection.
