I am not perfect,
Nor that I want to be.
Perfection….
What fun would that be?
No mistakes?
Not failing and trying again?
While around me people
are looking for perfection,
I just want to live a good life,
And enjoy my time,
And give my best,
And learn…
But maybe it’s something wrong with me,
And maybe in the process of my creation,
A flawed was created.
But it’s fine, because,
I am not perfect,
Nor that I want to be.

Perfection, I would say, is a concept that is relative to the person that is saying it. Words that are often said with meaning contained within them that are also relative can be subject to the perception of the person and therefore can't be can't be defined by any two people without determinning their meaning exclusively. I find that many words tyhat people use to describe themselves falls into this lot.

It's so nice to see how my poem sparked this interesting conversation. I don't believe in perfection. But then again, it's a matter of perspective. The way I see the world, can be a total different view from yours. And that's ok :D.
@viyprop nice poem by the way ;)

I'm not even close to good, perfection seems to be impossible but I consider myself little different when it comes to live life.Most of them are so busy in their daily working life and in the end they get stress and headaches while i find happiness in some small things like seeing birds on a tree.

I agree with you. I think many people are trying to be perfect. Be the perfect husband, the perfect employee, the perfect citizen etc etc.
Nobody can reach perfection. We are all flawed by design. That is the human nature. We just need to take it step by step and enjoy the little things.

We are all perfect, whole and complete in the ways that we are meant to be. The rest is there with a reason, some want to know and seek for answers. Others, they are less concerned. So long as you are seeking a path of betterment, which you can find contentment within, then that is the course to stay.
Lovely words. I enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

Yep, we can strive for perfection, but never reach it. Because if we reach perfection, that's the moment when we will stop growing.

Perfection theoretically seems like an ideal state, yet as you perfectly point out, hehe, it would be boring; no room for flaws or growth. I really enjoy what you are doing here. Well done and thank you for sharing!
