I M Perfect lady

Courage lies within us in a very deep place, buried behind the walls of fear of imperfection, coated in false ideals and fantasies that are impossible to attain, courage waits for us to uncover it.

Peeling back the layers and layers of deceit we have of ourselves, piles of unrealistic desires and impossibilities, a mound of what I am not.

Courage comes when we are able to stand alone in being who we are right now without improvements, without the completion of dreams, minus the goal, but instead standing right here right now, completed up to this point.

With no excuses, no reasons, just as I am.

The courage it takes to drop all the idealized versions of your self and just be okay with the raw deal, the real complete version of you, up to this point.

For some reason we continue to not look at what we are, but instead of what we are trying to become.

While we focus on where we are going we miss this step in the creative process, this step called today.

I have no idea of what my final creation of me will be, but I do know who I am today.
I know where I walked, how I walked and sometimes even why, I don’t know where I will step, but I know that each step will be me.

It takes courage to be truthfully half done, authentically complete, and yet fully perfect as you are right now.

Am I whole?
Am I normal?
Am I perfect?
Am I sick, mental, imperfect?

Whose measuring stick am I using?

My intention is to be with myself as I walk forward in my life, not a fraction more perfect than I am right now, and not a snippet less.

It takes courage to accept yourself as you are today, to toss aside the blueprints and be complete now, without a new version in mind, but to be a success thus far.

Courage is letting go of perfection.
