this world perfect in its imperfections

My Father always wanted me to be perfect, but his notion of perfect wasn't mine. In fact, I learned over time that nobody is perfect, and that life exists in that dynamic tension of needing, striving, to obtain balance. It's a delicate act, and it is a constant. If we had total equilibrium we would cease acting, cease moving, cease doing. We need that balancing motion, as in the see/saws of our youth. To be perfectly centered, doesn't work. Neither of us moves.

I don't want to find "perfect" but yes, I believe in perfection, meaning healing, meaning patching the broken areas of lives. We learn through suffering, but cannot condone this, being humane.

The notion of a Messianic world involves a sea change, a see change, that is oceanic --- to perceive it's all G_D. I know it. IN every possible way.

Do not give me things unbroken, but give me, a way to convince others to lay down their swords, to use the words within, to work for peace. The journey is Everything!

Shlomo's Playbook

I have been a fan of the NFL since the early 1960's and the goal clearly is a "ring." If you want to make the world a better place, you have to make your "hands" dirty if you know what I mean. You can not hide in the Jewish Ghetto anymore!
