Pooja Bedi Instagram – Which is harder? Being perfect or accepting your imperfections? As we wade, paddle, swim, surf, sail and even get marooned or nearly drown during our journey through an ocean called life, all that we seem to care about is that every time we surface is that we put our best face on. we constantly seek to hide our sadness, our distress, our failures, our wrinkles, our cellulite, our “imperfect body shape”, our paranoias, our quirks, our lack of purpose or focus, our insecurities, our inability to be the “perfect” parent, friend, spouse, partner, boss, employee and so much more. have you ever looked eyeball to eyeball with yourself in the mirror and had a good laugh at how utterly messed up you are, and how much you love yourself despite it? Have you ever hugged yourself, or plunged into the waves of an ocean with a sense of elation, freedom or random happiness, not because you did something wonderful, or deserve to be happy, but simply because it’s so amazing to …. BE YOU??? we will all fall, falter, make mistakes, fall in the mud, roll in the muck…. but how many of us have the ability to get up smiling and LOVE ourselves for trying… and embrace our oddities, pecularities, emotional fractures and even our mental confusions? YOU are special, unique and it’s only YOU who has to deal with every version of you. how wonderful to be human, how wonderful to chase passion, vision and purpose ….. and how equally wonderful to make a glorious mess of it all. Chasing perfection isn’t half as exciting or rewarding as loving and embracing your imperfections. Try it!!!
