We have the need to be accepted and to be loved by others, but we cannot accept and love ourselves. The more self-love we have, the less we will experience self-abuse. Self-abuse comes from self-rejection, and self-rejection comes from having an image of what it means to be perfect and never measuring up to that ideal. Our image of perfection is the reason we reject ourselves the way we are, and why we don’t accept others the way they are.
~ Miguel Ángel Ruiz

The only escape from this perpetual wheel of want is to discover the contentment and perfection we already have.
~ Gillian Stokes

~ Rabindranath Tagore

~ John Updike

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Perfect is the enemy of the good.
~ Voltaire
