The Flaws Within


Our generation is: too busy judging others to notice that everyone is just stitched up of flaws with only good intentions in mind. “That girl has put on some pounds. He is wasting his life away, with his careless decisions. Those pants make her ass look huge. She is a slut because she slept with one guy, just ignore the fact that they were in love. She is still a slut. Someone should really look into some plastic surgery to restructure their entire image to live a new life; trying to avoid the unavoidable. They are quitters and will go no where in life. Is she really wearing that? What did she do to her hair? She is ruining her reputation." No matter who you are, whether it be a hardcore religious freak or an addict just living till your next fix; EVERYONE has their judgements, constantly looking for the worst in others. Take a look around, how easy is it for you to truthfully compliment another human being around you? Our flaws are what makes us: one-of-a-kind, unique, rememberable. Without them we would all be robots wandering around with the same motorized walk and there would be no substance within. Here’s a secret: You’re beautiful! It’s society that’s jacked.
