Favorite Quote:
"Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality." ~ Lewis Carroll's Cheshire Cat


If the world were to be perfect,

Would it be worth it?


Would there be a meaning to life,

If there were no strife?


If everyone did as they should,

Would anyone still be good?


If all were to forever smile,

Would seeing anyone smiling be worthwhile?


Could it be that ‘imperfection’,

Has won our affection?


And is it that this imperfect society,

Is, in truth, the best for humanity?


The author's comments:

In other words, would it be worth it to change? Imperfection makes our lives worth living. Our faults make us unique. Our wrongs make our rights precious. Those who forget that, focus on failures instead of successes. 

Don't forget this.
