i am my own worst enemy


i am not a purr-fect person.

i get restless, scattered and anxious.

i can be impatient and elitist.

i am hard on myself due to a perfectionist nature.

i have an over-active imagination which causes me to worry.

i'm afraid of mediocrity and living a life unrealized.

but all these negative traits about myself i accept. and every time i am plagued by uncertainty and insecurities, i get humbled (time and again) when i realize there are so many blessings bestowed upon me. that the universe is watching out for me. and that there are so many people who want to help me. and realizing especially that there are bigger and more important things in the world than just me.

i am thankful.

As a fellow perfectionist, I can totally relate.

Beautiful picture, btw. :)

I'm only a perfectionist when it comes to my ideals and what I think my life should amount to--then I'm never good enough for my own standard :)
