Perfection

From Ladies Pass It On

If you're trying to reach perfection, be prepared to try

forever.

Perfection isn't a place, or a destination, or a goal.

That's a myth.

That doesn't exist.

You're on a long road to nowhere.

And yet, perfection does occur.

It occurs every day in fact...

It's in the moments, the minutiae, the everyday.

It's that feeling when your beloved snuggles in and two

souls become one.

It's the love in a fleeting look that says, "I got you."

It's the table filled with food, family, friends, and laughter.

It's the achievement of another battle fought and

survived.

It's the smiling eyes that look like your own and those

who went before you.

It's the knowledge that you can, no matter what.

It's a safe roof over your head on a stormy night.

There is no such thing as a perfect life my friend, there

are only perfect moments in every day.

The real worry, is a life spent chasing perfection when

actually, it's passing you by.

In all the little moments, right here, right now.
