Hi passenger. Hope you’ve grabbed a bite and are comfortable as we move forth onto our next destination. Today, we shall be questioning our common notion.
Can I ever be perfect?
This one question is usually rephrased as ‘I want to be perfect/ i wish I were perfect’; but trust me you don’t want so.
Firstly, because perfection is a notion. Nobody is perfect because nothing is perfection; not even an intelligent, blue-eyed, long-haired, slim (most preferably with abs) kinda girl.
Simply because perfection is a mere notion that is marketed to us, to fulfil the seller’s selfish interests. This notion makes us feel inferior and tricks us into buying ‘let’s-become-perfect’ products.
Also, if ‘perfection’ exists, then it is definitely not fashioned of one’s physical features. Because we’d rather stay with a no-so-pretty-faced person than a not-so-pretty-souled-one. So, you: your heart’s compassion, warmth and empathy are what ‘woo’ people and make you beautiful. Beautiful enough to be termed as perfect. And the colour of your eyes, the length of the hair, the size of your waist; they’re mere statistics.
Lastly, being perfect is too much of a burden y’all! Always coming first, winning every match, being strong at all times. Ugh, it’s too much! Aim for happiness. Because when you go to bed; you wanna sleep with a peaceful mind not an exhausted one!
Since, I’ve mentioned about ‘being strong’ we shall talk a little more about it in the next post!
XOXO
