How do you be perfect?
1. Honestly nobody can be perfect no matter how hard they try. We were born imperfect. 2. I disagree. We are all perfect. We are living things that had come too far in life… to not be perfect. The imperfection is merely what we do to ourselves and put in our minds that we are not perfect. There is no double you and no one can replace you. You are perfect, born perfect. you are perfectly you. 3. I agree no one can be perfect, but you can always be wonderfully imperfect just being yourself. 4. I disagree. if you like Ben and Jerry's ice cream you're perfect. And coffee, you have to like coffee. 5. I disagree with 2 and 4 because we are NOT perfect. If you are perfect then everything about you is perfect. you have all 5 fingers, you never make mistakes, teeth are all perfect, you never needed braces nor glasses. You always talk correctly, you never think wrong. You like everybody, you don't judge anyone, you always agree with everything. you don't argue. If someone hits you, you wont get mad; you never lied. I bet both of you have done wrong before or one of those negative things i mentioned. Like i said No one is perfect. Thank you very much. 6. If you assume braces, 6 fingers, mistakes, glasses, judging others, disagreeing with others and not appreciating being hit are all negative, then I guess you would see the world as very imperfect. I disagree with your list of bad things. 7. Glasses can make a girl cuter; braces can be a way for adolescents to relate to one another; a 6th finger would be just plain useful when the other 5 are busy; diversity in the ways people talk make conversation colorful, the errors people make in their thinking can be hilarious! 8. Does a perfect person have to like even the worst villains? Does the perfect person have no moral standard by which the actions of others are judged, right or wrong? Does the perfect person not become angry when presented with injustice? And would the perfect person, when put in such a position, not lie to protect loved ones or the innocent? If so, then we need to change our definition of what it is to be perfect. We seem to have a list of criteria which render an individual imperfect, so infinite and minute that perfect has become an impossible standard. Compared to perfect, we all suck royally. When did we become so hard on ourselves, so ruthlessly demanding? Why not have a finite, individually decided criteria which make someone perfect? I say anyone who likes crossword puzzles, the NYT and coffee with an occasional getting-stuck-in-the-rain tendency is well enough perfect. But that's me. What's your perfect? 9. I'm sticking to what I said. I'm not going to keep arguing with anyone about it. (MORE)
