If I could single out my “worst” flaw I suppose I might be able to fix it. But the problem is….my flaws are at their “worst” when “that” flaw is in action.
And as flawed as I am I can’t be partial to just one flaw. So I will categorically deny that any one flaw is worse than any other.
I am flawed.
Truth.
By the way….say ‘flaw’ or ‘flawed’ numerous times. It starts to lose any meaning in my head. It sounds like an unfinished word when you repeat it often enough. Oh…kind of like me. I’m not flawed! I’m not finished yet!
Also by the way….I wrote something as a teenager that may address this flawed being of me just perfectly:
“I am not perfect. I never claimed to be. But, that doesn’t stop me from letting others think I am.”
I don’t know that anyone actually thinks I’m perfect. Unless they think I am perfectly flawed. Either way I am okay with this.

Amen Husband!

Hmmm, you sound human to me…strange that.
Oh so very human!
You r perfect to me!!!
Awwww! <3 YOU are biased!
I see perfection runs in the genes.
Awwww Koji, I think mine skipped to the next 2 generations.
But now you are my FAVORITE today and it’s only 551 a.m. here! Happy Friday!
Happy (chilly) Friday morning to you, too, my Queen!

Nobody is perfect… It is in accepting your imperfections that we become perfectly flawed…. I’m not sure if that makes sense!
Please read
It could’ve been me

Mae Gregory it sounds like sense to me. Accepting we are not perfect is about as perfect as it gets. Trying to be “better” is a wonderful way to be, once you accept your imperfections.
(BTW I did enjoy this post of yours!)
Thanks a lot
To be perfect is impossible. But to be perfect, you need to know your flaws…and change.
It’s all in the change Koji. For sure. And try as I might, I know perfection is not mine to be had. And I’m okay with that as long as I keep striving.
I like being not perfect. There are less headaches to deal with.
This is one fantastic way to look at it.
I think we all have our flaws … and we are all perfect in the one we are, but we have so difficult for us to accept us for what we are. I think it’s the human race …. We have got too much brain at times
Sadly we have plenty of brain but forget to use it sometimes!
I like what you said “we are all perfect in the one we are”. No one else can be me like I can be me!
Colleen, it’s so true … and we have to accept ourselves – and not always looking at being something we aren’t meant to be.
You are correct, and I still (even at my age) sometimes struggle with this. I am who I am.
Colleen, we all do …
I found one of the best crème ever for my face – my face glows and it evens out – never seen it anything like. And it’s cheap. It gives a slight color … that is the only make up I have those days.
So I’m just .. like everyone – not totally accept me as I’m. *smile
You are beautiful. And I don’t even need to see you. With or without make up.

I think it’s perfect that you’re perfectly flawed. Aren’t we all? It’s just that some of us don’t acknowledge it and think we’re perfectly perfect in every way. But we can’t all be Mary Poppins.
No we can’t can we? But we can all go fly a kite! (That song has been in my head for TWO WEEKS!)
WHAT? You’re flawed? How do I cope with this new info.?
Breathe deep…..deeper…..hold it…..
for how long?
Okay….now….breathe.
wow holding my breath over night was no easy task…
But you did it!
well i rock, what can i say..
Flawlessness is overrated. Your flaws and my flaws go together like cheeseburgers and rainbows
You can’t get better than cheeseburgers and rainbows!
I love this: “Oh…kind of like me. I’m not flawed! I’m not finished yet!” Great perspective!
Thanks Courtney!
My perspectives help me A LOT!!!!
Yes, yes, not finished yet sounds so much better than flawed! Not a flawed way of looking at flaws, if you ask me.
Hugs,
Kathy
Thanks Kathy. I like that it is not a flawed way of looking at being flawed, but a good way of looking at being a work in progress. (And I just wanted to write ‘flawed’ a couple more times because it is ringing in my head as an awkward word now.)
Hugs returned!
Flaw, not perfect?…. I have no idea what you all are talking about. I just can’t seem to relate!
Hahahahahahahahahahaha….oh…you’re serious….
Uhm, okay.
