Flawless or having less flaws?

Unlike Beyonce, 

I did not in fact wake up like this.

It took quite some mental and physical preperation 

for me to appear the way I do each day.

One day,

 I may be stressed and depressed,

but i still am able to wake up and appear "flawless"

Google might tell me that flawless signifies perfection,

but i believe it simply means having lesser flaws,

because believe it or not 

everyone has flaws. 

Whether it is the gap in your teeth,

your uneven eyebrows,

your non-symmetrical nose,

your big ears,

your acne,

your oddly shaped toes, 

or even your daily attitudes.

Instead of going through each day,

complaining on and on about these "flaws",

I have learned through experince that 

it is much easier to accept them,

and move on.

It might have took 15 years, 2 months, and 16 days,

but I have in fact thought myself to build a bridge and GET OVER IT, 

because no one is perfect (whatever that means).

And YES not even Beyonce. 

Who knows, 

at this very moment,

she might be complaing to her husband about a giant zit on her nose.

After all it is near Christmas time,  

and Santa might be in need of a special red-nosed reindeer.
