imperfection/incompleteness/lack of features and traits, essential nature

FEARS:

* I hate me
* I hate others
* I think I am perfect!

What does it look like when I am doing it? (rewards)

* confidence builds
* acceptance of how I am
* acceptance and tolerance of others
* others accept me

What does it look like when I am not doing it? (costs)

* mistakes happen
* secrets continue
* others don't trust me
* pain continues

What are the benefits?

* confidence
* trust of self, others, God
* humility
* self exploration/awareness

What is the truth?

* I have defects, and that is alright

What is the illusion?

* I don't have defects, they are not that bad
