Law 46.

Law 46.
Never appear too Perfect
Appearing better than others is always dangerous, but most dangerous of all is to appear to have no faults or weaknesses. Envy creates silent enemies. It is smart to occasionally display defects, and admit to harmless vices, in order to deflect envy and appear more human and approachable. Only gods and the dead can seem perfect with impunity.
we will all laugh at gilded butterflies. word to miss megan fox.

I love this.Sadly enough when you are placed in this perfect untouchable box you try to live up to the expectations of others.But perfect=boring,and perfect=imperfect.And as weird as it may sound imperfect to me equals perfect because you are then perfectly imperfect. Whether we hide them or not we all have flaws.
I don't mean to sound cliche, BUT "nobody's perfect"...when a person can point out their imperfections,faults, and weaknesses, and accept them, because that is part of them, and still know that they are beautiful inside & out regardless, THAT is closer to perfect TO ME than trying to APPEAR perfect...
i tried to be perfect once but i stopped; i found i really sucked at it.
Sadly enough, this is fact!!!
smh.
OMG this is soooo true. I work in a dayum (ooops spelling error LOL) office and these people HATE to admit fault. Like SO WHAT nobody is perfect no matter how hard we try. WTF is wrong with people with sticks up their asses? It's def a office divided "the haves and the have nots".>>> We're cooler tho and WE drink lol
Perfection breeds jealousy and envy! Although no man walking on Gods green earth is perfect, if everyone were truly content in themselves and their abilities, another mans "perfection" wouldn't matter!!! The only two people who are openly accepted as perfect are God and his son Jesus Christ. According to the bible we were made to be perfect...until adam ate the forbidden fruit. So my point is, although this Law is very much so true, I believe that people should focus on self and stop worrying about the next man!! Do you and Im'a do me!
I love this so true #realtalk
silent enemies are the worst! I'm learning this as we speak
