Holy Perfection

If it ain't broke,
you know what not to do.

But do you know
what ain't really broken?

Until the day comes when you can see
everyone and everything as uniquely perfect,
leave your tools in the shed,
and keep in mind what you’ve just read.


If you look for perfection, you’ll never be content.
Leo Tolstoy
