Is that like the magician who turned into a magic shop?

Re:

Yes The trouble is some of us want to be perfectionists, but it takes someone like a monk or similiar to devote the human mind to achieve such feelings.

Re: Kabu

No I'll write you off as perfect Kabu but you have made a Hell of a good job of trying.

Re:Katray

Thanks Kat. I expect a lot would think you had been more than perfect these last few years.

ReRPresta:

Thank you , RP. I guess we all fail somewhat,but as you say we are what we try to be.

These are both exquisite. I didn't strive for perfection, only to be the best that I could be. But, who attains that? We try, we fail, we try again, and thus is life.

A deep one, CC!

 Time perfects memories, but I believe  the raw beauty of a true memory never dims or changes. Oddly enough, I never strove to be perfect,  just to be myself. Maybe my grades in school would've been a lot better if I had, lol. 😉

I don't thinkk I ever had it in me to strive for perfection I knew the critical around me would always bring me back to the reality of my flaws.

It was a real freedom to realize perfection was not expected of me really by anyone but myself, and that my expectation doomed me to disappointment in myself more than to be disappointing others.

I feel the same way when it came to perfection. I used to strive for it big time. The expectations were so high that I could not help but feel deflated. I have improved a lot on not expecting too much from myself.

Hindsight is 20/20, as they say.
