Total perfection?

** People tend to look for things that are supposedly perfect!
Perfect is overused and now exist as another word for many of the anticipated assumptions in life. Today there are so-called; perfect storms, perfect plays, perfect shots, perfect games, or many things made or assembled. A great deal of time is spent seeking total perfection.

People tend to look for things that are supposedly perfect!

Perfect is overused and now exist as another word for many of the anticipated assumptions in life.
We used to call views and statements as a " pipe-dream "

** What's the meaning of the phrase 'Pipe dream'?
A (pipe dream) is an unrealistic hope or fantasy. What's the origin of the phrase 'Pipe dream'?
The phrase 'pipe dream' is an allusion to the dreams experienced by smokers of opium pipes.
Opiates were widely used by the English literati in the 18th and 19th centuries. Notice how Opiates are still the rage today!

Yet, " total perfection " is seldom to never seen here on earth. Perfection has become a catch-all ideal for many today.

** Notice how:
" perfect " operates as an overused phrase today?

Today there are so-called; perfect storms, plays, shots, games, and many things made or assembled.

We now find this idea of so-called perfection in much of the modern vocabulary today.

If we were honest{another moral quality overlooked today} then everyone would know to be perfect is not necessary for daily life. A great deal of time is spent seeking total perfection.

Yet this in no way meant to say that it is not desirable to do your best! By all means, we should always attempt to do our very best. But doing your best will not result in perfection!

Perfection is more a state of mind - not an actual reality. Learn to be successful and beneficial to yourself and most importantly to those God has placed upon your pathway of life!

Attempting to do your best would be a better application of your efforts in all things.
Many cultures like the Navajo, when they make something, they will purposely install a noticeable flaw - because mankind does not make anything absolutely perfect.
Therefore do not waste time chasing perfection - just do your absolute best and let the cards fall where they will!

Learn to seek the truth in each and everything you do. Then pray for the direction and purpose of your life. Eternity looms before us! Prepare now while you can!
Because the only perfect man was Jesus Christ!

This is the one place you can find perfection!
Seek the Kingdom of God - earnestly seek not just try a few scrambled words or passing thoughts!.
Amen!
