Hi Eileen, to be honest I don't go looking for imperfections, I'd rather look at the picture as a whole! Thank you ... I love your comments:) Hugs // paul

Hi Andrea, I looked up the song you mentioned...I like these 2 lines: "Love your curves and all your edges // All your perfect imperfections". Thanks for liking:) Regards // paul

Thank you, Charm. I wrote and posted this one-liner last year, but deleted it after I found out that online there are many references to 'beauty & imperfection'. I did not want anyone to think that I had copied it!! I posted it again this time ... coincidence does not amount to copying! Regards // paul
