Does perfection even exist?
Or is it just a man-made concept?
They say good looks make you perfect,
But aren’t looks deceptive?
They say being academically strong makes you perfect,
But do we realise the cost of it?

Nobody is superior, nobody is inferior and neither equal. We all are simply incomparable and unique. I wonder why people have such a queer tendency of trying to portray a character of themselves whom they really are not. Reading success stories, we try to adopt qualities of others just to become successful and to prove ourselves.

Dreams do come true for those who have the courage to believe in them. God created all of us with unique qualities. He didn’t create us to be perfect. We should appreciate our uniqueness and nurture it. Believe me, those different talents of ours will create success stories one day. All great people with huge wealth, magnificent empires, and extraordinary ideology have been successful because they never followed anyone; instead, they believed in their uniqueness. We must have the courage to dream and passion to work.

By obscuring our true emotions with fake expressions, dreaming about a better life, and trying to satisfy others, we are probably exploiting ourselves. Instead of being somebody else, try to be yourself because you are meant to be simply unique. The world needs the real you. Stop trying to become like others by copying them; just be yourself because you are perfect in your imperfections and different in your own little ways.

As it has been rightly said: “Being unique is better than being perfect.”

I wish that all of us didn’t have to strive to make ourselves appear so sorted out with nothing in life left to figure out — with none of us lost or with our minds messed up. I wish imperfection was considered beautiful by everyone, not just a handful of people. And I wish all of us genuinely showed off our scars and not just the best parts of our selves.

“I wish imperfection was considered beautiful by everyone, not just a handful of people. And I wish all of us genuinely showed off our scars and not just the best parts of our selves.”

If that would be the case, nobody would have self-esteem issues. Nobody would be under confident or struggling with anxiety. We wouldn’t have to convince ourselves with the thought that nobody is actually perfect. We would just know that. We would be able to see everyone for who they really were, not for the fake people all of us pretend to be.

I don’t just want to preach all of this to everyone else, I myself want to change and become braver. Brave enough to be imperfect. Brave enough to let everyone see every single scar that has ever harmed enough. And brave enough to tell the story behind each of those scars with the utmost pride.
