Today's quote is widely attributed to actress and icon Marilyn Monroe, who is known for her glamorous and often controversial life. While she was famously a tireless worker, she knew how to appreciate imperfection too. Her quote favors the wild, the unexpected and the countercultural. At the end of the day, even an icon of beauty and glamor like Monroe was human, and just like all of us, she made mistakes. But rather than obsessing over the little things, she knew the value of imperfection and recognized that tiny flaws are what make us unique.

As you go about your day, take inspiration from Marilyn. Try to see the silver lining that lies behind every setback and the unpredictable beauty that surrounds us all. The path to success is never smooth, but the pitfalls are exactly what make life worth living.
