Perfect is Overrated


What is 'perfect' to you? How would you describe a perfect spouse? How would you describe a perfect life? Body? Face? Achievements? Yes, we call something perfect when it's just as we want.

Perfect is not a condition, it's an opinion. So when people say "Nothing is perfect" or "Nobody's perfect" it's merely a suggestion that indicates not everything we want, we get. Sad, but, hey, that's life! After all, "nothing's perfect", no? ;p

I'm Moving

Yeah, I might've failed to mention this to my friends that I'm moving. Yeah, I'm gonna leave this house, which I grew up in for like almost 20 years. So.. yeah. I'm pretty upset, sad, disappointed, and blahblah. I have tried, I have! I tried listing the positives in my mind, but it just didn't work. I hate leaving this blue house :(
And now my mom is yelling at me because I'm playing computer :s

Well, the reason why I didn't tell you guys in the first place, is probably because I didn't feel like it was the right time :/ and I.. I think I just don't want to believe this, I'm still hoping this would never happen. But.. It's happening. Like, right now. So. Yeah. See you, I guess.

Pointillist Point of View

Have you ever heard of pointillism? Well, just in case you haven't, I searched it on Wikipedia and here it goes,

"Pointillism is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of pure color are applied in patterns to form an image. Georges Seurat developed the technique in 1886, branching from Impressionism. The term Pointillism was first coined by art critics in the late 1880s to ridicule the works of these artists, and is now used without its earlier mocking connotation."

So, basically, pointillism is a technique of making something out of dots, or points, if you will. And the output is called 'pointillist'. Haha. Anyways, I was making one the other day, before this holiday of course. It was sort of like a never ending homework, that's how it felt -_- I'll show you mine later, but here's something for an example.. *psst, this are NOT MINE*

OKAY, it's a REALLY COOL example, right? And yes, it IS made out of DOTS! So, here's how I make mine,
1. Choose a theme
2. Think of everything that matches to that theme and search for the picture, anyway or anything you like
3. Arrange the pictures in a piece of paper, the size is any size you please
4. Tape the arranged pictures in that paper
5. Use another paper (same size as the first one) and trace those pictures to this new paper
6. Let's dotting!

See how everything is arranged so delicately at the beginning?

While I was dotting, it hit me. The Pointillist Point of View. What is that? That is just something I made up on my own, but here it goes.

Our life are so much like Pointillists. We are those dots. Little black dots. Sometimes that made us feel unimportant, made us feel so small, useless. But we have to know that we helped form something, something that we cannot understood. Well, not yet anyway. God has plans for us. We are not a mistake He made, because everything is already planned ahead, planned before we were created. We are those little dots, we cannot see what He's trying to make, we cannot know for sure why He's putting us in that particular place, we don't know why, why, why. But we gotta have faith for what He's doing. He's gonna make a one very ubercool pointillist ;)

And if we ever get cocky about our spot, our life, just remember, we are nothing but tiny dot He put inside His majestic work of art.
