Imperfection

So many things in life that don't go our way. Because of that people used to saying 'I wish ....'
‘Ooo, I wish it didn't happened’
‘I wish I were taller’
‘I wish I could be his boyfriend’
‘I wish I were superstar’
‘I wish I were famous’
And there would be so many more 'I wish' would come up…..
When I was younger I used to think…
'Why I am not as smart as him?'
'Why I don't drive a better car?'
‘Why I don't have a bigger house that equipped with swimming pool, gym, and jacuzzi?'
well, it's been a long time. in fact i'm still alive until now. I survived through all those imperfections that haunted. And now I’m thankful with what I have. Ihave nothing less although all I have is not flawless. I have family and friends that love me although sometimes they pissed me off. I have a job that suits my want and need. I have opportunity to do things I like. So what else should I be worry about? Girlfriend or life partner? Ah it can wait so just chill and lay back.
Culture and lifestyle that we're facing nowadays somehow caused us to get insecure about what we are and about what around us. In a modern world people tend to be judged by their having and not by their being. I remember how I used to imagine to live somebody else's life. At the end, through times I've learnt that people that I used to envy , found out that they don't live happily as much as I thought. Yes they are loaded but they are sick and shattered. Yes they are good looking but they are insecure about what people might say about them. Yes they are incredibly smart but nobody wants to be friend with them because thay are not easy to be friend with others.
All those facts hit me in a sudden awakening. Why should I be disappointed with what I am? I'm not perfect, I don't have a knock out figure, I don't have private jet coz my family can't afford it, I'm not dressed with designer's label ,I don't have fancy car, and I don't live in a luxurious mansion. But guess what? I'm still living and amazingly I could enjoy live with all those imperfections around. I'm not incredibly smart but I could have a job and I am enjoying it. I'm not physically perfect but I'm happy at least I'm not having any deadly disease. I'm not rich but I still can afford to do things I like.

So ,does perfection matter? It depends... it depends on how you feel and see things through different point of view. First impression does matter… I agree on that point. But first impression can’t talk too much about yourself. Remember Susan Boyle?
