Imperfection

Imperfection is beauty. It's the little quirks a person has that makes them who they are. Without these random oddities in our personalities... what are we? Probably someone totally different: A semi-automaton who exudes an aura of mediocrity. 

Is a perfect life really that desirable? I wouldn't even consider it worth living. To me, pain is one of the most important aspects in life, it's reward being the strength you obtain from overcoming it. Without hardship, you become something that is truly inhuman: selfish, greedy, arrogant. These attributes represent the offspring of a so-called "perfect" life. 

Embrace the things that you consider faults. They are what make you unique. The closer you get to perfection, the farther you travel from humanity. Through balance and control, the only way one can achieve a perfect existence is by channeling these faults into something positive. At least that's what I'd like to think...
