Does perfection in reality never contain any flaws ?
Cool Do you want to share some examples of perfection in reality and tell us how they are perfect ?

What would you define as "perfect" or "perfection"?

To start, I say perfection is relative

In a kind of emergency situation for example, breaking some valuable things in order to rescue someone you love would be perfect.

From a Taoist perspective, water could be considered perfect. It is soft and yielding, able to adapt to any twists and turns in its flow. There may be a slight interruption in its flow, but it will always flow wherever comes next naturally, even if that is not the original path it was on. Its formlessness allows it to adapt to almost any situation, and therefore it is perfect. Taoism says a lot about nature in similar veins, but water is the most frequently discussed aspect of nature. In order to achieve maximum pleasure from the universe, we have to flow, like water does, as naturally as possible.

Wow, I found that inspiring, Taoism is worth the effort.

Water can be compared to many things and it can work in harmony with many things to go with the flow in reality.  It's all one big whole isn't it ?

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
