I created this list because our society is so geared to make us these perfect little machines that are able to “do it all” when in reality we are humans, and we fail….. a lot. So this list is the embodiment of showing the world that we aren’t perfect and we never will be, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t worth anything, instead, we must treasure our humanity as it is a precious characteristic that defines who we are. Because from the day we are born on this planet we are given all these labels to convert to with boundary lines dictating how we should live our life. These boundaries are enforced by societal behaviors of tearing people down and judging people for every mistake, for every imperfection. This toxic behavior is an attitude infecting our brains and causing us to treat each other horribly, which is why we need to rewire our brain and finally accept we will never be perfect. By finally accepting and acknowledging our imperfections we can tear off those labels bestowed upon us at birth, replacing them with self-love and confidence in the person we have become.
