EVERYONE IS PERFECT, BUT THE WORLD

All our lives, we have been living with the notion that due to one unknown reason, there is no single perfect human being in the entire world. This assertion has become part of human reality and explains a lot when we fail to utilize our potentials in different situations. When we fail in something or wrong someone, we use the assertion to justify that something is wrong with us by putting the blame on the creator of our existence. We have to keep up with the boring and irritating friends, wives or husbands because its buried under our conscious that there is no perfect one around and if we let go of the ones we have, we will search our entire lives for the perfect ones, all coming up to nothing.
The best hidden fact about human beings is that we are so desperate to see things make sense. We can’t live with unknown for that long. Even if something is beyond our level of understanding, we force some vague explanation of it just to convince ourselves that everything is okay. No, sometimes it is not.
Human beings are very perfect creatures. Our creator had no business creating human race and bring them to the world before perfecting them. He couldn’t be that desperate. We are what he intended of us to be, we possibly can’t be what he didn’t intend us to be. For that, comes perfection, design something and actually make it. Maintaining that we are not perfect is just being unappreciative and that is disrespect to the one who gave us life.
The fact that sometimes we don’t get results related to the efforts we put into certain action or situation, has nothing to do with us being imperfect. It is time we start considering other possibilities. Like it might be that the reason sometimes bad things happen to good people is just the world isn’t perfect itself. That makes much sense for me. After all, good results are supposed to come out of good deeds. That is what the world is assumed to be doing, and is actually doing it sometimes. We see some hard workers awarded with good life, effectively studying learners awarded knowledge and good marks etc. The time different unexpected and crooked results happen out of good efforts, is the world proving its imperfection, not human.
Just think about it guys, this complex world as we know it, with every natural features in it like oceans, mountains, rocks etc, was made within seven days. Only seven days. Only seven days for complex thing like this. According to the greatness of the creator we have been told about in scriptures, this might be possible. The laws which govern this world, like Flotation, Gravitation, and so many others which control every minute aspect of our lives are the ones which cause the world’s imperfection. Am convinced that, these laws were not perfected in seven days when the world itself was created. Actually, they might still be under construction as we speak. This is the reason why there is no guarantee in life of the results you might get, despite whatever you do.
You might treat your spouse with much care, love and affection, only to be heart broken. You might study in very impossible environment and come out with great GPA, only to find a job given to someone not properly educated, but who just happen to have a ‘godfather’ in particular office. You might follow the Commandments your religion deems necessary for winning God’s affection, only to find some stupid crazy people ruin your life just like that with no one by your side to defend you.
Am not submitting these contentions as the quantifiable truth of life, you must not misunderstand my point. Am just saying that, according to me, saying we are imperfect due to the miseries happen to us is less sensible. We are exactly what God intended us to be, no matter what others say of us. God is all knowing and nothing is beyond his limits. If he wants us to be otherwise, he would have done it within the blink of an eye. We are perfect creatures who fit his design of making. It makes much sense for me believing that the world’s miseries happen due to the world being imperfect, not us. Everyone is perfect, but the world. For me, its much easier to live with this version, I don’t know about you.
