Perfection

They may say there is ‘no such thing’, and I agree to a certain extent. There is no such thing as a unified sum perfection. There is no perfect level for music, but there is one for yourself, the particular song, at a certain time, at a particular place, in a certain mood. Perfection does exist, but only at the realm of each isolated thing. And in an extreme case, perhaps if each isolated thing were to reach perfection, that would be the unifier that would result in being universally perfect.
At each isolated object (a piece of art, your own principles, etc), perfection is what is not too much, and not too little. It’s what is just right. And it’s as simple as that. It can be applied to every facet of our lives, the way we behave. Even the kind of questions we ask. There are people that ask too many questions, such as myself. And those that ask too little. That certain sweet spot is what we all subconsciously, and for some lucky who are conscious, try to attain. It is exploring both the widest vision applicable, and going to the smallest of details. Both should be given just as much time, even if the smallest issue seems trivial, time or energy consuming, etc. Anything worth doing is worth doing right. It’s easy to see the big picture, but for those that have the critic inside them, if the details test fails, the whole object is ruined. But if just right, you’ve won over the likes of all.
Perfection is synonymous with greatness. If you can’t find inspiration or a point of reference within, look out. Scores of things to find what’s closest to what feels just right to you. And if that thing is close to what feels right, complete the missing puzzle to make it just . Be consistant and verify that consistancy. The patterns that will emerge as a result of this will be what we know of as, simply from heaven. And when it is true, and you feel it that it is, and that it has been verified again and again, others will feel it too. And like a garden, you’ll blossom and bloom.
