Perfect Imperfection
I find it intriguing how nature in its original and untouched state is uniquely beautiful and perfect. However we all too often fail to see our own exquisite perfection; condemning and altering our own uniqueness if it doesn't fit the conventional or constructed ideal. Imperfection is the authentic perfection of beauty.

very very well said... kudos..
I LOVE this!! "Imperfection is the authentic perfection of beauty."
Thanks very much! I'm glad you like it! :)
..odd, I was just sitting here thinking of the same thing!
((So)) true. Love this. :)
Too true!!!!
Spot on! One of my favourite songs is called Imperfections.
How many times I've met someone, saw the imperfection, and then as I came to know them the imperfection would disappear. Love whether it is through friendship or intimacy is like a magic eraser. Holly at lifelaughlatte
I love this! I think about this when I'm sewing. I wonder if my customers realize each item is truly unique...
Visiting from SITS!
Well said and I LOVE the photo. Nature is so beautiful.
Happy SITS day!
This is very, very true!
Happy SITS Day!!
Interesting thought! Uniqueness is beautiful and nature sure is full of it! God does great work!
Congrats on your SITS day!
Beautiful and deeply thoughtful! Congrats on your SITS day. Awesome photographs too, love it! :)
Stopping by from SITS. I love your blog. Congrats on the feature. Off to look around.
I love it, and the photo too :) Happy SITS to you!
So absolutely true... Always makes me sad when all someone sees their imperfections and can't get past them. We are all imperfect in some way, but that is the beauty of life.
Amen! Well said.
That was beautifully put. I think we all need a reminder of this periodically in our lives. It's all too easy to concentrate on our imperfections as flaws rather than parts of the whole that makes us the beautiful individual we are.
Thanks for the reminder, today!
(oh, and happy SITS day!!!)
Wow. I really like that.
Great words of wisdom. We women are the worst at trying to fit into a mold that society has created. It's such a false image. We need to celebrate just who we are-imperfections and all.
Stopping by from SITS...loved this post!
So true. Love the flowers. I love the daisy flower, had them as my wedding bouquet. Stop by The Blessings of Modern Domestication to see more ~ today's my 5yr wedding anniversary!!
I love your post. God has truly made us unique in so many ways.
Have a great weekend, sister from SITS
Really true, and love the picture!
Imagine how boring nature would be if ALL trees were exactly the same... all flowers, all lakes. It would be so unbearably dull. So why do we aspire to a dull sameness?!
so true. we women need to remember this and stop being so hard on ourselves :)
So very true! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great post. Hope you are enjoying your SITS day.
