Picture Perfect.

"Alien can blend right on in wit' yo' kin, look again cause I swear I spot one every now and then" - Andre 3000

Life is a bunch of bullshit. While living through this bullshit, which smells alot worse than it did a couple of years ago, I've realized that no one is perfect. No shit right? But it gets deeper than that because we tend to overlook the flaws of those close to us. Like our bestfriends, we'd swear up and down that they were perfect. Take a step back and really get a good look at them. No picture is perfect...right?

Nothing in my life has really turned out the way I want it. I plan and think I know the outcome and boom shit hits me and I end up disappointed. With that type of shit happening it kind of makes me want to stop dreaming. To stop taking time out of my day to sit and just daydream about the months to come. Planning shit out when I know I really don't have any control over it. Thinking I'm going to do this or get that when deep down inside I know I'll never grasp that shit.

Pictures just don't come out of a camera. I can picture myself being 21 living in Atlanta in a nice two bedroom apartment. Fresh out of college...nice car...nice job. Straight doing me. Or I can picture myself being lowered into my grave and all my loved ones gathered around dressed in black crying. But even then those imaginary pictures aren't perfect.

I guess what I'm trying to say is nothing is perfect...but I could of just said that all along and didn't have to write all this shit. Perfection is something you can strive for in whatever you want. Your dreams, career, relationships...anything. But everything has its flaws. That apple of your eye just might be rotten and that bestfriend you've always wanted just might not be a friend at all. That picture you've painted so vividly with your imagination will have its errors here and there...shit you really can't control. Your life isn't going to go the way you planned it. Its alright though, because I mean shit...what really is perfection anyway? When you find something thats truly perfect...let me know.
