Intangible for a reason

The next time someone asks you why they can’t find or have the perfect life, job, lover, car or outfit run this by them. Ideas of perfection are only perfect until they materialize. It’s almost as though perfection and existence in a TANGIBLE form are two characteristics that are never found in application to the same idea person or object.
Take the perfect circle as an example. It’s only perfect as an idea, a thought, or a definition. Attempt to put your pencil down on a piece of paper to make visually existent and it instantly becomes imperfect. There will never be a pencil sharp enough, a compass accurate enough, or a sheet of paper flat enough to create it. Seeking perfection is a lost cause.

If at first you don't find him or it...keep looking. Hmm...or like in a perfect book, he'll find you.
