“A certain type of perfection can only be realized through a limitless accumulation of the imperfect”
— Haruki Murakami
Simplified Meaning:
Trying to achieve something perfect often means collecting lots of small mistakes and flaws along the way. Imagine an artist working on a beautiful painting. They might make many mistakes and need to repaint parts over and over. Each correction and every little flaw they fix help them make the painting better. This process shows that the small, imperfect steps are necessary to reach the final perfect result. In everyday life, this means we shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes because they help us improve and eventually get things right. It teaches us to see imperfections as valuable steps in the journey towards achieving our best work.
