Because there is no such thing as perfection. There is no person in this world who is perfect, NO-ONE. Not your mum, your priest or your celebrity film star. No-one is perfect. The advertisements are lying to you and have been lying to you for years. Advertisers simply want you to feel inadequate and pretend that perfection exists so that you will buy from them and make them rich. They have been wearing away at your confidence for years, and they have been so successful that you have started seeking something that doesn't exist, perfection. Now you know that, you can stop searching for perfection and just be yourself.

Hi!

I see it just a matter of perspective. We look the perfection outside of ourselves, not realisizing that we are perfect as we are. This is to say that there is no need to make us other than we already are.

Grandfather went on to say " , all of the drama you suffer in your

personal life is the result of believing in lies, mainly about

yourself, and the first lie you believe is that you are not good

enough, you are not perfect.

We are born perfect, we grow up perfect and we will die perfect because

only perfection exists. But, the big lie is: " nobodys perfect " , so we

search for an image of perfection that we can never become, that image

is false, it's a lie, but we invest our faith in that lie and then we

build a whole structure of lies to support it. "
