Perfection

"Perfection is a deadly kind of thing.  It is sterile and cold.  Whereas what God calls each of us to is to the transfiguration of our own imperfections.   If you journey with your own imperfections; you speak with them, you converse with them, you ask them to show you what they really want to tell you then you'll find out everything that you need to know about the incredible mystery of your own soul that you didn't invent but was graciously given to you.   You will also find out wonderful news and a wonderful meaning to the depth of your own calling that you didn't invent either."  John O' Donahue
