The Perfect Accomplishment

It’s funny. I was skimming other people’s blog posts about their greatest accomplishments in life, “to be happy” or “to destroy corruption.” When this question was first posed to me absolutely none of this came to my mind. I’m too selfish for that. I thought long and hard and, realistically, the best thing I could do is become like a world-famous writer. However, realism sucks. Unrealistically, achieving perfection would be the greatest achievement I could ever have – you could even say it is the perfect achievement. I mean, I’d never screw up again. I’d be all A+’s, a pro at love, a killer in the business world. The thing is, I wouldn’t do anything to be perfect. There isn’t any moral or legal boundary I would cross. I mean, perfection insinuates I wouldn’t have to do anything like that to achieve perfection because it would all work out perfectly. However, if that weren’t how perfection worked, yeah, I’d definitely embezzle some money to be perfectly honest. Murder, that’s a route I’d never take for perfection.
