Perfection?

What is perfection?
If you were to ask Google, it would say:
The condition or state of something being free or as free as possible of flaws.
...or something of the sort.
Is this really what you want to achieve? Perfection?

Because if so, you should know its impossible. Something never to exist, perfection. Because everything is interpreted differently based off of the eyes of the beholder. One can be perfect in person A's eyes, but not in person B's.

This is what it is, getting rid of all flaws cannot be achieved. It is what makes us humans, and not being human wasn't the goal to begin with.

So is perfection the goal? Never is, never was. That adrenaline of not being good enough isn't what it is. It is not that you are feeling incorrectly, merely interpreting these emotions falsely. What you are feeling is the need to change/improve upon yourself. Which could be good or bad depending on why you want to do so.

Is it to benefit you or society? It should be remembered that in the end, it is you that ends up with the consequences of the decisions you've made in your life. Not society.

Whatever flaws you possess, you must understand there are strengths that come along with it.

Ultimately, you are imperfect. You have flaws, but it's those flaws that make you whom you are. These flaws are a part of you, but they will never define you. Perfection is merely an idealistic concept, not something to be taken literally.

In all actuality what is the real thing you must become?

This is simple, the best you can be. Your best might be another's worst, and vice versa. So these things, don't matter.

What does matter is what it means to you. So, become who you want to become. Become your perfection.
