How nice would it be to take traits from various individuals, toss out the bad traits, and be left with everything you need?

I think it would be horrendous. The people I love are people, well rounded, full characters, perfect in their imperfections and little contradictions and complexities and even the bits we don't necessarily mesh well over are things that make conversation fizz and give rise to challenge and self challenge and progress open mindedness . I don't want people to be allbthe same, which is what would happen if we could do that, our frienfship circles would be dull and our relationships stultifying.


Now, onbthe other hand. If self improvement were so easy.....

That is all nice in theory and quite practical. Makes a wonderful thought and we can all nod and think how amazing the human being is.

And it is all very true.

It is also a lot of bunk

Most of those people train to race.

After that half marathon, I realized that I race to train.



The realization explained a lot.

La. this is it.

It's not I am not pro making ourselves better, I try all the time, I just know it's also the imperfections that make us partly us and partly lovable.

Our flaws help to keep us real. We learn from our mistakes. Versatility makes us unique from one another and let us not forget, opposites attract. Flaws and all.

Cookie cutter people?! Boring!

and then there's cookie cutter cats

All though cookie cutters are brilliant! I had to stop myself buying two more this week. Considering I haven't baked cookies for a while I do not need to add to my collection .

I'm same around tools and fishing equipment. One of those count to ten before impulse buying. Refuse to count 10 when in bookstore though. Best to favour used bookshops then you can emerge with 20lbs of books for under 20$.

And gingerbread people don't count either.

When you are always fighting for every inch because of quirks, "flaws", and not fitting into societies norms your perspective might be slightly different.

But, again, your mileage may vary

I have shortbread molds with beautiful designs...my favorite being the 12 days of Christmas AND the traditional thistle.
I've always wanted one of the rolling pins too.
