If  that's  true,  then  why  are  we,  as  humankind,  trying  so  hard  to
            achieve this God-like quality? Why do we put ourselves through so
            many trials, why do we judge ourselves so harshly? To whom do we
            have to pay our dues, if not ultimately to our own essence (God)?
            Who  else  is  more  worthy  of  our  attention,  who  else  deserves  our
            involvement more?

            The  fashion  industry,  according  to  which  perfection’s  trapped  be-
            tween bodily dimensions? The scientific community, that uses IQs to
            draw  lines  and  divide?  Or  maybe  the  government,  in  whose  eyes
            perfection is a tax paid at term?

            Haha, what a joke!

            Can you not see the farce of it all?

            Drop this play, stop the pretence. Didn't you get tired of this dance
            whose practised steps keep you entranced? To hell with them all, it's
            time to put an end to this grotesque show.

            Erase the boundaries you've set for yourself. Set fire to the garments
            that give you social acceptance. Get on your head and spin around,
            Make a fool of yourself, and for heaven's sake, laugh out loud.

            Perfection?
            More like detention.

            Imperfection?
            Embrace it now and you may still have a shot at redemption.
