It’s easy to think that we’re not striving for perfection, but often we are in some form or another. Perfection can be different from one individual to another. For some of us, it’s who we think we need to be around certain people. It’s literally a suffocation of the soul. Give yourself permission to be yourself, even during those times when you think you need to put on a mask. Be yourself, and watch what it does to the people around you. Don’t be afraid to be imperfectly you!
