			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes you will  hear people say, &#8220;Nobody is Perfect.&#8221;</p>
<p>Generally they include themselves in this category of not being perfect.<br />
It&#8217;s an odd kind of self judgment.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an odd kind of self judgment based on this idea of perfection.  However, there&#8217;s nobody in this category of &#8220;Perfection.&#8221;    And if perfection is an empty group then &#8220;perfection&#8221; doesn&#8217;t really exist.</p>
<p>The consequences of that is that &#8220;imperfection&#8221; doesn&#8217;t exist. Then there is no one that is imperfect either.  Including you.</p>
<p>Saying that you aren&#8217;t perfect is like saying that Tuesday is not tall enough.   &#8220;Not tall enough&#8221; does&#8217;t exist as a category for Tuesdays.   Then the category &#8220;Too Tall&#8221; doesn&#8217;t exist eigher.   The categories don&#8217;t apply.</p>
<p>So applying the category descriptions of &#8220;perfect&#8221; and &#8220;imperfect&#8221; to your self, and other people, doesn&#8217;t make much sense.</p>
