I wish I was perfect.

But Im not perfect.

When we go through struggles we feel as if life is bringing us down. We feel as if there is nothing to smile about and that life is simply 'a living hell'. Perfection is what many people want, but nobody has. Today, soul visionary productions and myself performed what is called Monologues in Motion which is a performance of different pieces of monologues put together to create one whole monologue. Each group had individual themes; but, my group's hook was imperfection. The desire to be perfect. We all may feel at different times that, I wish I was perfect; I certainly do. One thing I have learned is that it is alright to aim to be perfect; keeping in mind that regardless not everything is going to go the way we plan. Though I believe we could have done better overall in performance, the message was strong. We ended with Simple plan's Perfect. The words within the song are very powerful if you take the time to read it. Remember,

Ideals are like stars; you will not succeed in touching them with your hands. But like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them you will reach your destiny. ~Carl Schurz, address, Faneuil Hall, Boston, 1859
