12/2 Poem - Be Happy, Not Perfect

There is no such thing as perfect.

Where did the word come from?

The perfect husband, the perfect job

the perfect house, the perfect marriage.

We are all humans, living in a human world.

Most are nice, sincere, loving, even find.

But perfect causes such unhappiness.

Perfect is unreal, untouchable.

Accept good, well done, and wonderful.

Do your best, be your best.

There is no such thing as perfect.

Be happy, not perfect.
