Opinion: My Perfect Flaw

Today, I've got my thinking hat on
Lemme first grab a carrot.


 I really like it when movie characters are not branded "bad" or "good" in all of their doings because I know that's untrue. For this reason, I find it hard to relate with "ideal" or "monstrous" characters portrayed in movies.

I like real.

Real in the sense that "No one is completely good or bad", at least that's what I believe. That has had me acknowledge people's strengths and give almost anyone I meet the benefit of doubt.
I consider that one of my strengths.

Movies were for the longest time my window to seeing the world but then I understand they [the directors and co] only let us see what they want us to see. Usually, it is something that will help sell the movie.
I appreciate "real" movies because they inspire me to eventually tell my own story and understand that it's okay to not be perfect. The movie St. Vincent and series Parenthood were centered on everyday experiences that highlighted our flaws and accentuated our strengths as a people so I'd consider them timeless. To me.

I think more people need to know that it's okay to not get it "right".
A lot of practices we consider "normal" are other -dead- people's opinions they got through trial through errors living life and with time yours may eventually be considered "normal" by generations to come. So live so you can leave quotes too!

Since we didn't come with a "One size fits all" label or manual
Then there is is no absolute right way to live.
It's not absolute. Nothing is.
