Scratches, Scars, & Perfectionism

Definition: Perfection

  • The condition of being free or as free as possible from all flaws or defects.

  • The action or process of improving something until it is faultless or as faultless as possible.

  • Perfection is a flawless state where everything is exactly right. It can also be the action of making something perfect. Since perfect things are without fault or flaw, perfection is a perfect condition — everything is 100% great.

Perfection only works so long as you never make a mistake. It’s a high pressure, suffocating way to live, that’s unattainable.

I’ve got too many scratches, and scars to be perfect. I’m also just tired of trying to project that image. I don’t think I fooled anybody. I’m ready for change.
