The Grace of Imperfection

--

We are all imperfect, in our own way,

A flawed masterpiece, each and every day.

But it is in these imperfections we see,

The beauty of our humanity.

For it is in our mistakes and flaws,

That we find the strength to overcome.

And rise above life’s many paws,

To the tune of a different drum.

We don’t have to be perfect, you see,

For it is in our flaws that we find grace.

A chance to simply just be,

And show up in this human race.

We must learn to embrace our imperfections,

To accept them as part of who we are.

For it is through our own reflections,

That we see the beauty that’s never far.

For when we let go of the need to be perfect,

We can finally breathe and just be.

And see that in our own way we’re perfect,

Just as we are, wild and free.

So, let us embrace our imperfections,

And love the parts of us that aren’t quite right.

For it is in these moments of introspection,

That we shine with our own special light.

For the grace of imperfection,

Is in learning to love ourselves.

And finding peace in our own reflection,

As we journey through life’s many shelves.

So, let us celebrate our imperfections,

And find beauty in each and every flaw.

For it is in our own unique connections,

That we find love and grace and more.
