This "imperfection machine" disrupts our flow of love and joy. So what if we could turn it off?So, here's the challenge: you can turn it off! Practice saying "all is well" and appreciating yourself and others. It's not about ignoring flaws but shifting your energy toward the good.As Sri Sharadha Devi said, "The world won't end if I refrain from criticizing." Let's cultivate kindness through a more positive lens.
