Perfect people don’t make mistakes. Because that’s one of the criteria for perfection. No mistakes. Ever. Not even one tiny one.
So, have you ever met any perfect people?
Oh, stop it. I am not. You’re embarrassing me. (insert chuckles and giggles here)
Anyway…
Here’s the irony in this world’s lack of perfect people. Originally there WAS one perfect man and one perfect woman. But they made a really bad choice (and you and I would’ve done something just as stupid, so don’t get on no high horses). And with that one decision mankind’s time of perfection ended. Almost before it got started.
One reason I brought this up right now is because of how many times I hear people use the word perfect in so many parts of conversations. For example, have you gone to a restaurant and the person taking your order asks what you want, and when you tell him or her, they say perfect? And not just once, but multiple times, depending on the order.
Or someone takes your information at a doctor’s office or bank counter, and as you respond to their questions, they say “perfect.”
Or about this? Watch just about any Christmas movie and see if you can’t hear someone say something like “this Christmas party is gonna be the most perfect one ever.”
Well, I’m gonna get a little bit Scroogey and say “bah humbug.”
Because using the word over and over in all these kinds of scenarios, and so many more, just turns it into a silly figure of speech. Until people don’t even know the real meaning of the word anymore. And silly as it sounds this IS important because perfection IS real.
But it only exists in three persons in one place. God. Good news is one fine day. He’s gonna change things back to where they were. And then includes changing the broken you into the…
Perfectly You
You’re not perfect
And neither am I.
And both of us
Should never try.
Perfect people
Don’t exist.
If you think so,
Please resist.
You can be you…
And it’s okay.
Keep on growing
Every day…
In your spirit,
Body, and soul.
You’re much more than
Energized coal.
You didn’t happen.
You were designed.
A loving Creator
Had you in mind
To be a real person
To think and do…
And though you’re not perfect
You’re perfectly YOU. © 2013 TF
OK, I think that’s a perfect place to stop for right now. Until next time remember….
