“Perfection consists not in doing extraordinary things, but in doing ordinary things extraordinarily well. Neglect nothing; the most trivial action may be performed to God.” -Angelique Arnauld
Perfection is sometimes given a ranking like a “perfect 10″ in gymnastics, or a 6.0 in a figure skating competition. But think about it. A lot of people can do a cartwheel, a lot of people can ice skate. These are not extraordinary things. But the way that they are executed in these world championships are! Thats how we can have something to aspire to. Those athletes are the role models for perfection in that sport. And yet, those athletes always see room for improvement in some way or another. So, in life, as we aspire to perfection in our spiritual world we have role models, too. We’d probably give Gandhi or Mother Teresa a “10″Â but, they would be the first to say that they were not perfect! Part of our spiritual growth is recognizing that theres always more to learn. -Lissa Coffey
