Seek the Journey Not Perfection

Seeking perfection, essentially, is saying the destination is more important than the journey. It can be described as going on vacation, and telling yourself, I can’t wait to check this vacation off my list. Is perfection ever achieved? How fun is perfection, and never having anything to work towards? Do you say, I can’t wait to achieve the exhilaration of perfection? Or do you say I can’t wait to dive in and explore and experiment? Sometimes, we have delays, detours, and surprises, but if we look deeply, they all lead us back to home. What is exhilaration? A life of perfection or a life of challenges and triumphs continually evolving to new heights. Danny G. 

Fearlessly Face the Unknown (Poem)

There’s a whole world and vision in front of me now.

Behind remains status quo, and chains keeping me down.

Shall I dance with what lies in front of me now,

Or look up to the sky and depart.

Exhilaration is calling me, 

From a stand of nothing

But my father’s hand.

Shall I leap away,

Or allow the chains to remain.

My limp causes me to stay

As I focus on my infirmities

And fear along the way.

What choice shall it be, 

Let the fear take over?  

Or fearlessly face the unknown?
