Are you Perfect??

A question I used to ask myself.  Society, parents, family and strangers... always trying to make us feel perfect.  The perfect house, the perfect life, the perfect kids, and the perfect amount of income.  Well I have decided I refuse to be perfect.  I will no longer try to form into the mold that society wants us to become.

I have brown hair that I havn't seen since I was about 16.  I was that perfect blonde or funky red.  Though I do love my reds!  Google Cat from Victorious.  That is my favorite color.  I am no longer hiding me.  I am slowly growing out my brown.  Red highlights here I come!  There is nothing wrong with fixing your image to what YOU like.  You don't need to have that Barbie figure.  If you got some killer thighs, Rock that!  I have a very bodacious butt and you best believe I love it!  I will not and refuse to conform to society's stick figure image.

I am not the perfect wife or perfect mom.  I am a terrible house wife.  I LOVE my family and will do anything for them!   I am not very good at cooking.  I  can't make any sort of pork, fish or ham.  We don't always shop healthy or support the right causes but I do my best.  And guess what, thats good enough!  I try and I put effort into it.  Want to know something else?  I start sentences with AND!  And I don't care, because this is a blog not a paper.

I will change for myself and no one else.  Don't think that's right?  Ask me a little bit more.  To clarify, don't assume.  I want to change things that will help me better myself or my family.  Therefore, it is changing for myself.

I am proud of who I am and who I have become.  No one will make me feel bad about myself or that I need to be "perfect" because guess what?  That is something I will never become.

I am very selfless but I am selfish when it comes to becoming myself.  I need to be.  To be a healthy mom and wife I have to.
