Finding Perfection

Rabbi Tzvi Freeman,
My father gets your daily doses every day, and is now deciding whether to stay at the bank he is working for or try and create his own independent trading business. Now he has the question- he feels like he would like to change jobs and try this opportunity, but according to this daily dose we wonder- when does one know to stay and sew the pieces together, and when does one know when to grow, increase, change, move on?
Thank you

I'm perfect.

Dear Rabbi Freeman,

Would you mind telling where the letter is from? i would love to read the rest of it.

Thanks

When there has been grief, loss and sadness in a life, we begin to search for perfection. This leads to a particular energy pattern that can be healed through energetic remedies. Homeopathy can often heal the broken pain when you take the correct remedy.

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your work, meeting new people, and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

That the world around me is not perfect, I am able to see. But for me the difficultiy is, that I myself am a perfectionalist. I always try to do everything as perfect as possible, and in growing and getting nearer to Hashem most of the time I do not reach my goal. And when I have a look at it, or feel it without even looking, I am depressed.
This statement, made by Rabbi Zalman, made me think that I have to apply it on myself too. Taking together what is shattered (and that hurts my pride!) fix it as good as possible and start all over again. Hashem smiles. -

Question: How does one go about sewing the broken pieces in the correct order?

Unless the correct order is established, the finished work will result in Chaos.

I understand the concept of Isaac Luria's shattering of the vessels. However, as for everything being imperfect, I see everything as perfect. Everything is in perfect balance otherwise the universe as we know it would not exist. It's the way we perceive what is that makes things imperfect.
