We crave perfection because we want to feel safe.
Letting go of perfection will not make you lose control of yourself. Perfection is a false control to begin with, and letting go of it is you actually re-centering yourself within your own life. You don’t sum up other people by how perfectly they do every last thing in their lives. It’s their simple presence that makes all of these things beautiful and worthwhile. Could you learn to see yourself the same way?
