perfection
“Everything, by an impulse of its own nature, tends towards its perfection.”
-Dante (A.D. 1265-1321)
Is it our nature to seek perfection? Or can we understand that it is our imperfections that make us perfect! We are here on this earth to learn and grow and experience. If we were already “perfect” what would be the point? If we were already perfect wouldn’t we be bored? We can always strive towards being the best that we can possibly be as human beings – knowing that a perfect human being is must by design be imperfect in some beautiful way.

Understanding the process is the key. I think we all strive for excellence and perfection and expect the best from ourselves, but sometimes people give up when the struggle is too much. That's where I think the key is, when the struggle becomes hard and trying, those are the times we learn and grow. When you've come through a bad situation and realize you made it through the next storm may not seem so terrible. Trying times teach us patience and endurance, but like I said some folks don't see that for the turmoil. The turmoil is their focus. The same can be said for God, we either face the chaos or lean onto Him and know by His grace we made it through, and He uses those times to teach us.

I think that ever since the fall of Adam&Eve Humanity has been trying to get back to that state of perfection but of itself it cannot,I believe also that only through Christ can we achieve a more perfect state, but not quite total perfection, as sin still rules the heart of Mankind and its effects limit our capibilities.

Depends on who you are. Those who see the world in black and white seek perfection, while those who see the greys of reality see the normal imperfections.

Perfection is a flawed state and thus impossible to reach, but still, it's a goal to strive for...
