on being perfect...

The topic of some of my favorite bloggers lately has been "on being perfect" in their lives and blog posting and writing.  Much time is being spent by them being disappointed with themselves when they don't demonstrate passion and commitment to a cause and they are sad, really sad and hard on themselves.  It seems to me that these people have forgotten one very important thing...they are human.  We are not perfect and should not think we can be.  All of us make mistakes, things change us and we have ups and downs when trying to adapt.  That is what makes us human.  As people, I truly believe we need to strive to be balanced and real.  We need to not judge and "pay it forward" and love ourselves for who we are.  We need to make changes in our habits to better ourselves physically and mentally and emotionally and we must be kind.  We must never forget there are no "redos" and that this is our one chance.  We must make the most of our lives each and every day, stop and "smell the roses" and see the beauty around us and in others. Life is too short to work on being perfect as that is not something truly attainable.  Live in the moment, appreciate what you have and who you surround yourself with as that is what will bring one happiness and joy and peace.
