Heya Jean -
Greetings from a fellow monk, hehe! Just kidding – I’ve seen you around at a few places, and just wanted to make contact – can’t believe I just found your blog, it’s really to my own heart. I think self-acceptance, even of our perceived “flaws” are one of the most important milestones one can ever achieve, so thank you for this reminder.

Cheers,
Albert

Let us all be satisfied of what we are. We are all unique but all equal in the eyes of God.

Thanks for inspiring me.

Love & Gratitude,
Tina

I think one way to describe maturity is to evolve to accept oneself, including perceived imperfections. There’s a great section of Rhonda Byrne’s book, The Secret, where teacher Lisa Nicholls describes her own process of revelation here.

I am reading The Purpose Driven Life and I just found out God NEVER made any mistake in creating anyone. As rightly put by Rick Warren, No one is an accident.

Great post Jean. You are wonderful. I don’t think I ever want to miss your posts again.

Thank you for sharing! I truly love that picture. It’s inspiring and uplifiting to see (and feel) her joy and authenticity..

It’s also confronting to read (because at the same time, I know that it is so very true) that we do live in a world where (displaying) emotions like vulnerability, suffering and struggling are considered imperfections..

I’m completely with you that bringing love, acceptance and compassion into this world will make a difference. No matter how small, it will always be a first step!

I think what happens is that when we are rushed, hurried or stressed in our day to day life, we get irritated and annoyed with “imperfections” of others. The slow clerk, the pushy salesman, things like that.

We appreciate the flaws of others more when we see ourselves reflected through them. Thanks for a great article.
