Perfection.

It's a word we are all familiar with.
It's a word we often use to describe what we want and desire.
It's a word that we have come to use out of context.

Perfection can be a positive aspect that we aspire to have. We all want the perfect hair, the perfect body, the perfect smile, the perfect personality, the perfect amount of brain power, the perfect life.

But what defines the perfection of those aspects? 
Are we supposed to all have the same vision of perfection?

No. Because in a "perfect" world, we are all different.

So why is it acceptable to compare ourselves to a vision of perfection?
Who says that we are not someone else's vision of perfection?

Often, I find myself wondering what it would be like to have my ideal life. I imagine a world outside the realm of reality. The perfection, so to say, is what captures my interest. A perfect world created by an imperfect mind.

But is that really true? Do we all have an imperfect mind?

Or are we using perfection out of context?
Do we have the perfect mind and body and life that is required to be the perfect version of ourselves?

There is someone out in the world who sees us as the perfect image, but we are constantly changing to be what we think is the perfect image. Those people who look up to us have a reason to do so. We are a perfect version of ourselves. No matter what anyone says, no one can be a better you than you already are. If we consider ourselves imperfect, then the fantasies we should be having are of how different this world would seem if we were not that perfect versions of ourselves, but an imitation of someone else.

Perfection is a matter of perspective. That's all there is to it.
We may seem imperfect in our minds, but if that's the case, why not change to be the perfect image?
Because we can't, that's why. We can't change because we have been made in a perfect image, and can only be the perfect version of ourselves.

Don't compare anything to perfection until you have taken a step back and decided on a perspective.
