A phrase that has arisen as people have attempted to avoid taking on the judgement that they are not where or how they ‘should’ be, is to describe themselves or others as ‘perfectly imperfect’.
The danger with the notion ‘perfectly imperfect’ is that there’s a good intention in there that we don’t want to judge ourselves for being where we are, but it’s still mixed in with the Unconscious self-judgement that we do judge ourselves for being where we are, as evidenced by the very fact that we have felt the need to qualify the description of ourselves as ‘perfect’.
We could have described ourselves as ‘perfect’, (or even, preferably, not felt the need to define ourselves at all), but we chose instead to qualify that to ‘perfectly imperfect’ … which still buys into the idea that there is a notion of where or how we ‘should’ be. A difference between what we are and what we ‘should’ be is a self-judgement.
