mono printDear perfectly imperfect one,

I think we new age types get lost trying to perfect ourselves too perfectly. It’s exhausting and wastes time we could spend in satisfaction and joy.

Recently a client and I spent some weeks exploring the value of imperfection. It was illuminating. Here are a few of my ruminations on this topic from my Morning Musings. I wonder which one feels written for you today?

500 “Perfect” Words About Imperfection

March 7, 2024
Morning Musings
In general we tend to imagine others to be either far more or far less perfect than ourselves.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

What are imperfections but imagined outcomes redirected by life itself?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

We try to achieve a guarantee that things go as we wish, people behave as we prefer, and results conform to our singular vision… this is perfectionism. It is an attempt to control fear, to guarantee safety, to manage the responses of others, and to serve the ego’s need to be right, to be vindicated, and to succeed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hoping for, waiting for or expecting perfection are activities that give our days a hollow ring of falseness. Sadly, we are trained to expect perfection of ourselves.

Doing the best we can, having a good enough day, feeling average, experiencing minor satisfactions… these all seem the failure sisters of perfection.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Learning to love ourselves as we are is key to spiritual growth, accepting our imperfection in other words. Does that mean imperfection is the path to Enlightenment?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

What a robber perfection is. It robs us of our small satisfactions, everyday achievements, momentary joys. It robs us of our “imperfect” feelings. It robs us of the disappointment meant to turn our action in another direction. It robs us of self-knowledge, preventing us from knowing what we feel and why, who we are and how we work emotionally. In this way, it steals our days.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~

All we judge as imperfect in life, in ourselves and others, are actually the vital building blocks for the important structures of our lives.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~
March 14
There is a correlation between how much of a perfectionist we are and how generous we are with others and ourselves. Perfectionism affects our ability to have compassion, which effects our generosity of both giving and receiving.

Benedictine Sister and social justice advocate Joan Chittister writes: “The concept of perfectibility, the idea that anything human can possibly be perfect…concentrates on the elimination of errors rather than the value of efforts.” (more…)

A Message From the Heart of Love
Seizing the Day

Dear One,

These are excellent times for a game of spiritual leap frog… great leaps ahead are possible. But it is not the easiest of times to recognize the guidance of your highest wisdom. To help you seize the opportunities of this time you’ve so anticipated, we wish to offer you a way to counter-act the current system static so you can feel more connected to your higher wisdom than ever before.

What we suggest is that you meditate on the central energy channel in your spine. Work with sound in doing so. You are aware there’s an energy channel that goes up your spine. We are suggesting that we work together with you in your sound work to turn your spinal energy frequency up for you… you will delight in what you discover as you do so.

This is something being amplified at large, and even more so for persons like yourselves. It is very much an opportunity, so enter into this with us. Using your chanting or toning, work with this inner channel in a short morning and evening sounding session.

The purpose is to assist you to further operate above the fray, bringing in certain encasements and easements from other dimensions that are going to assist you to operate without low frequency interference, yet be fully human, while having your frequency be of the new version of human integrated with higher levels.

Do this as you are guided, working also with the beautiful violet light with streams of cobalt that are part of this frequency. There is more to come regarding this, but for now, we bid you to begin this work with us and others in the unseen, we will attend you. We invite you to join us there and we leave you in loving embrace at this time.

A Wisdom Nugget for Your Day

  • The bee and the flower
  • What’s your field up to?

Dear human being,

Here’s a profound nugget of wisdom I came across today.

“Life is amazing. And then it’s awful. And then it’s amazing again. And in between the amazing and the awful, it’s ordinary and mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, and relax and exhale during the ordinary. That’s just living heartbreaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful ordinary life. And it’s breathtakingly beautiful.” ~ LR Knost

My thoughts on this:

The amazing is easy but the problem with it is we want more, more, more… we want it all the time, right? The awful is… well… awful. But the real problem with it is we dread it and avoid it when it’s just a fact of life and we gain so much from most of the awful. Less resistance to it and the help of a good friend or two make it a little easier, I’ve found.

The mundane often seems boring compared to the awful and amazing, doesn’t it? So we wish for more drama, which usually causes problems or disappointment. And the ordinary and routine is hard to notice at all, when in fact it’s the blessed zone in which our joy finds us with the greatest ease.

I always benefit from a little reality check about the above, thought you might enjoy one too.

Bags full of love,

Mayet
