I have heard,” we can’t be perfect! You are not perfect!” A thousand times over. I’m even sure today I might hear it. Gosh! Even I had said that a million and one times! lol 
As long as we are in this body, we all know we can’t be perfect, but we try to.
I’ve thought about it over and over in my head, trying to find a way round it. I think I have. We as humans cannot be perfect, we all know that but I say we can, in our actions. Our actions make up who we are, and I believe if our actions are perfect, we would be.
Our thoughts may not be perfect, our families may not be perfect, our friends may not be perfect but our actions can, although it takes some conscious effort. I’m not going to tell you, you can be a 100% perfect in your actions, but you can try. It never hurts to.
Most times we say we are not perfect in the way we respond to unpleasant situations and then we go shouting at everybody, ‘but I’m only human!’ That’s an excuse the whole world is relying on. The way you respond to situations, I say determines how perfect you can be. You offend a friend, are you quick to say I’m sorry rather than allow your proud wings to carry you because you think were right and he/she should rather apologise to you. Even if your friend did you wrong, you should be quick to say I’m sorry for what I did. Maybe my actions made you think that way, or act that way. Sometimes, not reacting and simply being silent is all you need to do. Then watch what happens.
You lost your job maybe because someone else set you up to take the fall. No-one believes your complains, don’t start screaming if you can’t get justice on your side. Do all you can to get justice served but if you can’t, go to your boss before you pack out, say that you are sorry this and this happened. Be completely honest and truthful about what happen but make sure you say that the situation in the office or wherever has taught you in future, how to be cautious concerning certain things and then respectfully leave. You would have left, but your superior will deep down know that you are an honourable person. Even if you did what they said you did, don’t hold a grudge when you have been discovered; be truly sorry, although you know you will be fired!
I’m not saying there aren’t times when you won’t make a sudden outburst because of a shocking situation. Things surprise me myself. You will get bored, you will get dissatisfied with so many people, people will annoy you but your response will make a big difference in you being perfect or not.
A great man said, ‘if you are angry count up to 10, if very angry, a 100’ before you say anything or act in any way. Never react in anger, you will later regret and wish you hadn’t.
