Practice Makes Perfect!

Many people say that "practice makes perfect," but what if there is a part of us that is imperfectible. There's a few things in my life that can never be perfected or fixed. What about yours? What if we could just take those in somewhere and actually get them fixed? Would you do it? I honestly don't think that I could. Those things that make me not perfect actually make me human. I don't think I would ever be "Jerm" if I didn't have those imperfections. Yeah, it would be really easy to just say that we don't have anything that needs a fixing, but in reality we all have some part of us that we don't like.

If we were perfect, then we wouldn't be able to relate to anybody else at all. I think that we were all made to have our imperfections so that we could really be something unique. Instead of them being called imperfections, we might need to call them something else. Something that doesn't seem so wrong. Maybe characteristics? I really do think that these characteristics are unique only to us individual persons so that we can reach out to somebody else that may have problems, instead of looking down on them in despair. So, be careful what your perfecting because it maybe some part of you that really doesn't need perfecting.

Great post. I couldn't agree more. Maybe God made us imperfect so only he could claim perfection?
