Perfection - Something we all look for, yet know that it's rather impossible to find.
We might not be perfect outwardly, but we can always strive to be perfect inwardly in terms of character, personality and attitude.
Because this beauty inside you, is the one thing which will be reflected when someday your physical body fails you; or when you scar your face; or when your legs can no longer walk or run. Beauty and perfection will be seen through your character. How you treat others, how you handle a tough situation, how you talk to someone who is trying to pick a fight with you.
Stop trying to look for beauty and perfection out there. Try looking for it from within yourself.
"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciati on, a sensitivit y, and an understand ing of life that fills them with compassion , gentleness , and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen." Elisabeth Kubler-Ros s
I couldn't agree more.
Like the quote in Mulan says:
"The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all."
So did the bible: ...because we know that suffering produces perseverance, perseverance, character, and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into out hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. Roman 5:3-5 (NIV)
Whatever you're going through right now, whatever sh*t you're in, remember that at the end of the storm, you'll come out a better person;
A step closer to being perfect, a step closer to being truly beautiful. :)
