Practically Perfect People
People generally find what they are looking for, but what they are looking for is not always what they think it is.
I can prove myself right beyond a shadow of a doubt. I can be self righteously brilliant a million times over. I can be so adept at doing things it is scary.
But in the end I may still be a sad lonely person.
Perfection is not at the top of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. We don't need perfect people in our lives and most of us surely don't want them.
We want empathetic people. People who understand who and where we are -- and like us both because of and in spite of that.
Imperfections are kinda like stuffing. They can get old and be cumbersome, but they also make us cuddly.
