Food for thought.

We regularly create delusions for ourselves because we humans strive for perfection in others more than we do in ourselves. We'd rather believe that everything's rainbows and butterflies, become obsessively delusional, instead of scarring and facing reality. Perfection exists in our mind. Nothing is ideally flawless. It's how we perceive things that determines our definition of perfection. Realistic thinking is a talent, embrace it.
