WE'RE NOWHERE PERFECT BUT WE STILL ARE HARD ON OURSELVES October 25, 2006 Wednesday 4: 54 a.m.

No matter how beautiful we look in a picture, how well we present ourselves or even how funny we make others laugh- there’s always a shred of doubt in our minds that makes us a stressful and unachievable self. Our strive to be the most of anything blinds our true self of individuality. Then our own character becomes another actor being lead with the herd of sheep. If we’re not exactly like others, we become self conscious. Inevitably leading to self destructive behaviors like smoking, anorexic, bulimic, plastic surgery, jealous behavior, easily influenced, drugs, drinking and so forth. If loving yourself is real difficult then it also becomes harder for others to love you or your to love another because you’re constantly aiming for perfection. Individually, we’re all different species. We’ll do whatever it takes to please a future spouse. What we do isn’t for everyone. We get braces, breast implants, penis enlargements, hair removal, hairstyles, hair implants, buy clothes…the list goes on. Once we altered one flaw then its just building blocks of thinking well now my lips don’t match my new nose.
