Perfectionism

Why do we, as humanity, always expect perfection? Life, wife/husband, kids, job, living situation, why would anyone make that a goal of theirs to achieve? When the common person expects perfection in something they are let down. Almost garneted, not all the time, but enough to consistently have a up and down battle with yourself. Instead of being taught to strive for perfection, which is a recipe for self-destruction, maybe we should start teaching to see the perfection in the imperfection? When we start to realize that not everything in this reality can be or will be perfect, then we start to see the perfection of our life. How everything is happening the way it is supposed to happen.

That is the beauty of this life, isn’t it? How perfectly imperfect it truly is? And that is the thing, a spiritual person truly knows that the world is going to ascend but they need to focus on the community aspect verse the world aspect. Reasons for this being said one major reason is the ripple effect, when you flare the internal spark of another human, they will grow to a point where they themselves will start doing the same to their community. It is almost as if one is reigniting that divine love, our connection to Mother Gaia, and eventually as you do this more and more people will start to do the same. That is what will help change this ideology of perfectionism.

Or maybe is the lesson in perfection that most of us may miss, is to strive for perfection but not to expect it? Almost as if we dump our energy and effort into whatever said project to push our passion or inspirations and then we must let go at the end of it. Whether the outcome is perfect or not? Because when we do this, we are learning to enjoy the process that we are enduring. We are also learning patience with this journey. I find it very intriguing how one ideology can have such a ripple effect on one’s beliefs in life. Then that person grows up like this not knowing any different. Then this trickles into our societal beliefs in return instills it even stronger into the next generation.

What I also find interesting is this concept of midlife crisis, as society now calls it. This mid life crisis, is literally, the realization that one goes threw and views the world and their time on this realm in a complete one-eighty compared to their twenty-two version of themselves. A reason I think happens is because we start to see that our time here on earth is not forever, we start to cherish all the moments we have with the ones we love because we know that we may not see them again. Why do we learn this as such an old age? We should be learning this as an infant, this should be the thought process that would change the world. Yet, we seek this perfect life and we self-sabotage our own lives repeatedly. Until we learn that lesson, but most of us will ignore that lesson that happens consistently

So, with this thought of perfection and digging into the damage a little bit that this does cause us harm in our lives. I know that for those who read this, they will start to contemplate the thought of perfection. That is the goal of every article that I write, I am not trying to tell you that what I think is correct, no. What I am trying to do, is to get the individual to start thinking, to spark that internal flame again. And maybe, just maybe. I will at least strike one person’s flame. Then let the ripple effect start. So, lets please all educate each other. So mote to be.
