A Flawed Inspiration


Inspiration comes in exotic waves.

The biggest wave that crashes onto me is how people admit to their flaws.

Tears may fall,

and bodies might shake.

But being brave is what is most inspiring.

I may not have the thinnest body,

I admit that.

I may not have the highest gpa,

I admit that as well.

Inspiration comes from the beauty of being able to admit your flaws. 

Not everyone is perfect, but not everyone believes that.

So being able to share my incorrections, I hope will inspire others.

Because when people admit to their flaws, it inspires me.
