The Imperfections of Humanity

We are not aware of what we are capable of nor whether if it's wrong or right. We sometimes have the will and might and many of us will stand up and fight. To show courage and strength takes determination and motivation. Wait..... What am I talking about? We cheat, we lie, and make mistakes. We're not perfect in any way. We weren't made to live forever but made to live and wilt away. We suffer through pain and it's hardships And even sometimes experience love. Yes, I've had thoughts of suicide so I can fade away. Realizing I had issues... I didn't care. I've always known who I was inside and never gave up. I'm no philosopher like Socrates nor do I have a college degree. But I was raised to be somebody in this world even if I'm going to fail countless times. Enough about me. Lets talk about the human race. We will get up when knocked down. We will fight for people we love. We will live life like it's our last. We will love ourselves for who we are. We are only human. Our imperfections is what makes us perfect. Therefore, we are perfect in our own little way.
