It's About Progress
There are things which are illusions. One is control. Another is perfection. I was originally going to talk about the first, but recent events have brought the second to the front of my mind. Addressing perfection, I thought I'd throw something out I'd heard before:
See, nothing in this life is perfect. Jobs, people, places, things, relationships. Everything has a drawback. Everything has ups and downs. This is especially true with life.
When it comes to life, it's all about making progress. Growing as a person, being in a relationship, these are two that are at the front of my mind right now. See, you'll never be perfect. I know I sure as hell ain't. But, I can make progress. I can try to be a better person, try to grow as a person, or not.
And that's what I think it all comes down to. If you expect perfection, from yourself or others, you'll be disappointed. It's just never going to happen. But, if you always try to improve, then you'll find that things aren't so bad.
Life is not about perfection, it's about progress.
