The Perfection Of Nothing









And yet, you still find one thing to obsess over. One form not filled in. One call not returned.

Obviously, this means your entire life has been a failure.

I don't suppose I need to remind you that this is beautiful. I will anyway: It is.

Is there a blog or gallery where I can see more of your friend's photography?

Oh how I wish this wasn't SO true. The negative, for some reason always makes the good irrelevant. If only we could cut ourselves some slack.

~It's not about being perfect..
It's about being alive~
It's about loving life and being a
loving being, in life~

The World, life, are not perfect & can never be..

Life, like the Universe is organic, and we, tiny particles of myriad imperfections, move and flow with life and the Universe, striving for what we think is perfect, yet realizing ultimately that imperfections are more beautiful...

Perfection comes in disguise, and never what we expect..what a beautiful surprise when we find it in the 'imperfect'~

And if you finally fail at failing you wonder maybe everything was really perfect all along.

I do this all the time. It's like I can't be satisfied unless I feel like I'm trying to fix something.

I try to cut myself some slack, but I never really do.
