Not Perfect Is Good

There is no such thing as perfection in this world

This may be a cliché but

It is the truth

The average person desires and strives for perfection

But

What does it mean to be perfect?

Nothing

Not. one. thing.

I despise perfection

If something is perfect, there is nothing left

No room for the imagination

No place for learning or skill

Perfection is a dead-end

We aspire to greatness than anything that has ever existed, yet never attaining perfection

From Bleach ブリーチ #306 “Not Perfect is Good” by 久保帯人 © 集英社
