A Little Flawed

It has taken a great deal of time for my friend to admit that she is  not as perfect as she thought and no one is.She had an inherent desire to be perfect not a clean freak or neat freak.No!simply to be perfectly understood and to seem put together and unflawed.(If that is a word).You see it is easier to look at other people and judge then based on your own standards.

I heard someone say that most 'perfectionist' (if you are one do not stone me yet )use their perceived perfectionalism to hide their insecurities.Whether true or not is a matter of an opinion.Well little needs to be said about how this affects others, to some point it almost feels like controlling others and not even knowing  it.I remember a friend of mine who could not allow anyone to sit on her bed in Campus.Infact come to think about it,neither did she.She would make her bed and only sit on a chair so as to not spoil her bed.If she ever did something that would cause someone else to ask questions she would beat herself (though not literally because that would be crazy) over it even though to others it was not a big deal,it is the inability to accept mistakes as part of being human that drives her crazy in her perception,she is calculative not wanting for mistakes to happen so she over analyzes everything.The line human is to error does not really gel with her.

Why is it easier to pass off as a perfect being?It is harder to deal with reality because lets face it,how likely is it that two different people will share the same traits?

We all are flawed in a way  whether it is obvious to others or not.I am not in anyway saying perfectionalism is bad infact it is a good trait to have even at work because at the end of the day you can be sure that you have represented yourself in the most dignified manner.I have not yet,read of any great man born on earth flawless other than Jesus.

The more energy we put in trying to look as the best packaged product,the more we become miserable creatures who live  to please others but are never honest with themselves.It is easier to judge others when you look at yourself as the ultimate.

I am not the refference point on how we as humans are intended to live and interact but I know for,sure unless someone would convince me differently,the only reason we need a saviour is because we are created with flaws.Being flawed is not an  anexcuse not to be the best version of yourself!
