We have this thing in minds, / we call it perfection. // We want everything perfect. // We want ourselves to be perfect. // There is this image in our head / about everything. // Perfect life, / perfect relationships, / perfect career, / perfect amount of money / that we need to earn no matter what. // Nothing is perfect in this world. // We all are perfectly imperfect, / and that is perfectly alright. // That's all right. // You were... /We were sent here / not to become the perfect people. // Those people who tell you how to look perfect, / even those people are imperfect. // Trying to fight this fear / of looking imperfect. // I used to be perfect. // I still remember. // I got this compliment / years ago when I used to walk. // Oh my God, / look at you. // You are fair. // You are tall. // You're perfect. // Look at me now. // Only the perfect eyes / can see that. // Only the perfect eyes / will see that. // Only the perfect eyes / will see that. // So, / yes, / in all those imperfections, / you have to listen to your heart. // You don't have to look good for people. // You don't have to be perfect / just because other people want you to be perfect. // If your soul is perfect from within, / that's all right. // This is all / what you want. // This is all / what you need to be. // Our society / has made / very weird, / very weird kind of norms / to look perfect and great. // For men, / it's different. // For women, / it's different. // We think too much / about what people say. // We listen to ourselves too little. // You know what makes you perfect? // When you make someone smile. // You know what makes you perfect? // When you try to do something good / for the people around you. // You know what makes you perfect? // When you feel someone's pain. // And how beautiful pain / is that it connects you with people. // No other medium / can connect you with others but pain. // That's why I always say / that I'm in pain. // And that's a blessing in disguise for me. // Every time I go in public, / I always smile. // It's always a big do- / the smile on my face. // And people ask me, / don't you get tired of / smiling all the time? // What's the secret? // I always say one thing. // That I have stopped worrying / about the things that I have lost, / the people that I've lost. / Things and people / who are meant to be with me / are with me. // And sometimes / somebody's absence / make you a better person. // Cherish their absence. // It's always... / It's always a blessing in disguise. //
