I find people and human nature fascinating. People never cease to amaze me. I find a lot of beauty in inperfection. I am interested in meeting happy, intelligent people.Intelligent people know that the world is flawed, and they smile anyway. They understand that humans are imperfect, and they overlook it.Neither intelligence nor intellectualism are required to realize and accept that happiness is not dependent on perfection.Intelligent people may seem unhappy to the casual observer if they are constantly thinking about and discussing the negative aspects of the imperfections of life, but they aren't necessarily unhappy. They just haven't come to the place where they realize that some things should not be dwelt on or harped on.I believe that most people are "intelligent" in some way. Some may not be able to read. Some may not be able to write. Some may lack certain skills or have an abundance of other skills. But everyone who lives a good life, does good to others, is kind, works to make the world better for others, and strives to uplift rather than to tear down is "intelligent".
