How Will I Know When I Get to Perfect?

by Tara Joyce | My Journey | What's On My Mind

Perfection Not

Trying to be good enough for Them, I’ve created an image of perfection that I do not fit. Seeing the truth of not being perfect, I reject myself.

And this “perfect” I seek, if I was asked to describe it, I couldn’t. So, how will I know when I get there?
