How important is it for you to be "perfect"?

[Soul_Rattler]

And if not perfect, "better"?

By that, I mean, the bigger person. The person who will walk away from an unnecessary fight, forgive a wrongdoer, not meet evil with evil, etc?

And if it is important to you, is it due to a religious upbringing or a natural inclination toward goodness?

Man hell no!

The answer to the first post is very important. Naturally inclination towards goodness. I believe in karma and universal balance.

The answer to the second post, man hell nah

Him not murdering her on the spot is forgiveness enough

I am almost always the bigger person who bites their tongue or walks away. I do it because its healthy for the soul and brings good things. It is very important for me as it's a good way to refine myself. That is not to say I am a pushover or can be walked on, I carry an air of authority and it is quite rare for people to cross me.

My goal is to always be kind and put out the energy I want back. I do struggle with forgiveness, but I'm not a tit for tat person. I'll cut you off before I get even.

its not a goal or something I've ever worried about, but I've been that way for as long as I can remember

I call it "having too much sense for my own good"

me undoubtedly knowing the difference between right and wrong has always stopped me from carrying out revenge or immediately acting on emotion

at times, I hated it....that shit is hard to swallow

but once i pass through the time, i look back and im like damn im glad I didnt shoot that man over no road rage or got myself taken away from my family because I just had to buck

I've never formally forgiven anyone that did me wrong, but I didnt always give them what I felt they deserved

I'd call mine a natural inclination, and thats what i was getting at in the trial thread

Im literally just now becoming religious.....it was never about that

c/s Lea on the energy flow as well....i do feel like my actions effect what comes around to me....so thats always been a factor as well

I'm obsessed with becoming the best version of myself.

I'd be the mad scientist that you walk into a lab and his big project is under a big blanket. And folks wanna see it, but he says "no it's not ready for the world to see". So he toils day and night to perfect it, deep down knowing it will never be perfect because it can always be better.

He has fo find a way to be ok with it being.."ok" cause what's ok to me can be perfect to you and what's perfect to you can just be ok to me.

Didn't see this thread before I made a related comment that references this thread.


For one I don't believe in the willful I'm only human cop-out for people's conscious shittiness

I also don't believe In any lazy attributions or universally accepted notions


I am not led by emotions but emotional content is important I cannot divorce myself from good damn sense
