I am Imperfectly perfect

-
By Aaisha




How frequently in your life have you heard the word "perfect"? Yet, I often listen to this word.

"Place everything precisely."

"Prepare meals perfectly."

"Appear yourself greatly."

"The space must be spotless."

"That is a perfect outfit."

"I want my children to be perfect in everything."

It's not like we're behaving this way because we constantly want things to be perfect and precise; instead, it's something that comes naturally to us: perfection. It looks pretty positive. Right?

What if, unfortunately, you are not perfect in any way?

The simple response is that you don't belong in this world; you're useless and don't know anything.

As a result, we begin to think that we cannot satisfy anyone and feel guilty, weak, and incomplete about ourselves. Unfortunately, our mental and physical health then starts to be affected by these negative perceptions.

I often consider how organized my mom is when I can't implement something properly. She always comes to mind as a superwoman who handles everything perfectly for us.

After I've gone through a lot in life, I question myself: Why do I need to be perfect? Why do I have to believe that every aspect of my life should be complete? After all, I am a human being who makes mistakes.

Therefore, it's okay to make mistakes; it's okay if I can't cook or finish the chores promptly. It's okay if I can't complete or overlook a child's work. It's okay to live for myself and leave everything behind. It's okay to follow my heart instead of what other people say. It's okay to let go of everything that bothers me; it's okay to be imperfect.

By Aaisha Assalamu Alaikum, My name is Aaisha,  and I'm a mother of four—two girls and two boys—and a housewife. There isn't anything special about me because I'm a standard housewife. However, I want to step outside my comfort zone and try something new.  My only goal is to have fun and spice up a little. I started looking for activities a housewife could do while sitting in her room because I felt a little depressed about my regular daily routine.   As my brain gradually began to function, I decided to start writing. I looked into the subject but discovered that everyone was talking about everything except us - the housewives. Since I live in Pakistan with a very conservative family, people assume housework is easy, and housewives lead comfortable lives. Still, they don't realize that it is just as exhausting to be a housewife as it is to be a working woman.  A working woman gets a day off, or a holiday, while a housewife works every holiday, every leave, and even eve

Joint Families In Pakistan

By Aaisha Joint families undoubtedly have a significant impact on our children's lives. Grandparents are an enormous resource for homeschooling, but a housewife has to sacrifice a lot for her children. Furthermore, it is impossible to say that mixed families are without problems when a conservative family is involved. Maintaining family traditions is admirable, but they sometimes work in our lives.  The purpose of bringing up this topic is not to hurt anyone; instead, it is to illustrate the feelings of a woman or housewife. It's not just valid for modern women, I'm sure; it was also true for our moms, grandmothers, and mothers-in-law, who felt the same things but couldn't express them at the time. People tended to focus more on the disadvantages in a study on joint families in Pakistan, although I don't concur with them. However, several advantages also deserve to have a place. So let's talk about the benefits and drawbacks I have learned from my experience and
