Have you ever had even if it's just for a moment, a perfect life.
Where everything was going just great, and life just couldn't be any more better.
Well, perfect is overrated.
I once had that kind of life where I felt as if nothing can ruin it.
One thing led to another, and next thing you know your life is falling into intricate pieces right before your eyes.
I once had these pool of friends, that slowly slipped away from the grasp of my hands.
I'm not entirely sure if it was my doing, or theirs, but we never saw eye to eye again.
I once had this wild spirit.
Now, the wildest you'll ever see me, is when I get excited about a new novel.
Everything you've ever known is shattered.
You're at a point where this "perfect" life is at the most broken.
This is your not so perfect life, and it's just fine.
This generation everyone seems to be doing different things to fit in. Where's the realness  in people? Where's the truth? It's okay if you're life isn't as perfect, honestly no one has a perfect life.
It's time to not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone, and have no fear to show people who you are, what you stand for, and what you believe in. As long as you've accepted yourself, then that's a perfect life.
