Dealing with an imperfect person could require patience, tolerance and love. This could be difficult. It is important to remember that we are all imperfect.

Do not feel like you're nothing because you are imperfect.....

like you're less than perfect.
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel
like you're nothing,
you are perfect to me."
