Perfection versus progression in seeking peace and joy




PEACE AND JOY
PROGRESAAION NOT  PERFECTION



PERFECTION

Perfection is a target that often others set
It’s a place you will be happy if you ever get
It chews upon ones soul with  daily deficit frustrations
And your  journeys aren’t adventures  they are just thwarted destinations

Perfection is not experiment it’s  a chain upon a rigid goal
It mandates constant focus  and disciplined  control
It ignores joyful distractions and assumes  no change of heart
Until you reach the finish no matter where  you start...

Progression

Progression assumes that you can change and become who you’re meant to be
It assumes. You’ll move from  where you are to see what. You might see
And listen to your inner light and  take some steps that way
While you pay  frequent  attention to the joy in every day

When you fall down that’s not failure—just a lesson you might learn
It  let’s. You know to look around you may wish to  make a small left turn
It understands that everyday you might have to start again 
Makes no demand on happiness being only if and when

Yprogression seeks a goal a destination if you will

It whispers “whistle while you work” and in small steps  get a thrill
It shouts check your spirit daily and let that be your guide
To gaining peace  and joy and the treasures  held inside.

for Progression is a growing thing  while perfection is an ending spot
Progressioncan bring  joy each day perfection well —most likely  not
Often  only others can affirm that you  are perfect now
They can’t tell why  it’s important but they tell you what to do and how
Progress is a promise  to move ahead you. Make within
There. Are dreams and treasures. You will find  that you can’t see when you begin

Oh would I love to find perfection?
Sure most. Humans would
But I’m shooting for Progression
And  I feel my chances are quite good

If I learn and change a bit with each passingday

I’ll wind up just right where I should
