Hey B

Yes, that's my point. The definition of perfection is a human concept like time is. When we transition perfection and time have no meaning. As a Virgo I have always been geared towards perfectionistic tendencies until I awoke and trying to keep things 'perfect' sent me into a meltdown.

Eventually I learned that perfection doesn't exist because things are constantly changing. You dust the house, it's perfect for a few seconds because more dust will settle. The lawn looks freshly cut, but grass will grow and a bird will poop on it or a rabbit will dig a hole. These are things you cannot control.

Then, how about people? No one is perfect for we all have bad days, less than nice thoughts because that's human.
