Flawed Perfection...

What does it mean to be perfect? What is beauty? What is accaptable? What is beneficial to our social human existance? What is efficiency? It all depends on the task at hand. If you are modeling, your flaws; your uniqueness is what makes you beautiful. Beauty is hapiness and joy shining through pain. What do you want out of your social experience? Do you want attention? Maybe loud and obnoxious fits your concept of "perfection". If you like for people to think that you are meak,weak, poor then maybe wearing a black cloak and walking around with a grim face all the time fits your idea of perfection. Like beauty, perfection is in the eye of the beholder. If you have not noticed yet at this point in life, everyone is watching you. Onto another dimention of perfection: efficiency. People are what people are. We all have a strangths and weaknesses. You know the cliche, all brains and no beauty or vice versa. Well, for sake of example I will use that to make my point. Perfection is the peak of a person's efficiency. Let us take shapes and holes as a picture of this. Say there is a round hole and you are trying to fit a square peg in it. Now, if you were a child this square peg might seem to have a flaw, an imperfection, a misfit. Now, this is from a child's point of view. As an adult, we would automatically see the round hole, and know without a second thought that there was a round piece made just for that hole.(I know you pervs out there are reading this with a shit eating grin... but I am about to slap it off your face...) Now, take this idea and apply it to god. Yes, I am letting the cat out of the bag. Let us call this entity,some call god, the universe. Say this entity was looking down on all of us squares and thinking "Flaw.Imperfect.Not Good Enough.Bad.Wrong.Misfit"... remember what I said about the child mindset about pegs and holes? If the universe had any concept of imperfection it would be as if a child was running things. Now, a child's logic is underdeveloped and could never orgnize and coordinate the orbit of billions of stars and planets. The universal mind has a capacity farther from a child's logic than we could ever imagine. So, why is it fair to say that people are not perfect? Why do we need to strive for perfection? If our standards for perfection are based on perfection sake, it is,l quite literally, impossible. If we are to be perfect, or MOST EFFICIENT in all that we are and do, we need to strive to strengthen our strngths. We have no weaknesses. If we were to get rid of our "weaknesses" we would lose our shape; we would lose our form. We would never fulfill our true destiny. If you are a pentagon, sharpen your edges, don't try to sand them down. If you are a square, do not try and round off your corners. Sharpen your edges. There is no such thing as human weakness. To be flawed is to be beautiful. To be a misfit means that you are trying to fit into a place you were never meant to fit into. The bright side: there IS a place for you to fit, perfectly and with ease. I am not saying that our actions are always perfect. I am not saying that the not-so-benneficial choices we make are to be taken up and to be proud of; no. I am talking about the core of our souls. You know what I am talking about. That person who shines through the pain and misery that falls upon us sometimes. You know that person who you never lost touch with despite change, despite fear, despite despair. This person is your core, your inner child, your soul, you god-self, what ever you want to call it, it is perfect and has no flaw but perfect flaw fit for a specific place in this universe. You are perfect. Not despite your flaws, but because of them. In all actuality they are not "flaws" as much as they are corners on a peg, ridges on a key, different sized bars on a bar code. There. That is my rant. Stay tuned for my rave. ;-)
