Perfection
by Emile M Tubiana → (All Poetry by Emile M Tubiana)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

We have to aspire to perfection while disregarding our and others' imperfections, bearing in mind that life on earth does not allow full perfection, and even less - absolute perfection.

Perfection

I said lately, we have to be children again
As they act without malice and don’t complain
It’s easier, as there’s no need for perfection
For money, for baggage or for connection

This is the beauty of childhood and its world.
Reading my colleagues’ reviews, my head whirled.
I was naturally touched by their kind intervention
Universe’s constant movement, caught my attention

Everything is holding on strongly just to stay alive
So human beings and every creation can survive
Everyone can aspire to relative perfection
As everything lives from movement and action.

Reaching absolute perfection causes life and goods to stop
No liquid could ever drop, no one can ever reach the top
It is our aiming and striving for perfection
That keeps us going and shows us direction.

We all try to be perfect because the Lord is perfect. My creator has instilled this in me.


GOD BLESS YOU

This poem inspires deep thought. I think good, decent people want to strive to be their best (which is parallel to perfection), but then there is the other side of the coin---as stated by Georg Mateos.

Perfection of man? Man has been for a long time running away from perfection, because it is more easy to roll down than climbing up.

Man kann nach dem Idealzustand streben, und als Mensch, tja, sich grosse Muehe geben, so einen Zustand zuwege zu bringen. Aber, meiner Meinung nach, gilt die Reise dorthin als hehren Aufklaerungsakt und nicht das ersehnte Ziel, was sich in vielen Faellen als eine Fata Morgana herausstellt. Schoen und sinnvoll geschrieben. Mit Gruessen!!

Perfection is in the eye of the beholder...I think you are perfectly correct in what you have written..Perfect? Well I cannot wrap my mind around what perfect should be..I believe that everyone sets standards for their own lives, and if it perfect for them, well then it's perfect!

Much Peace, love and light,

Christ asks us to be perfect as He is perfect so we have to set our sights high.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
