This may be controversial, but I’m going to say it anyway...

The perfection you seek exists only in your mind. Waiting to achieve this perfection will stifle your dreams and stall your progress.

When I was a child, I had a recurring dream of falling into a bottomless, deep darkness. Initially, I thought this dream was unique to me, but as I got older, I have heard others describe a similar dream.

My dream’s recurrent nature eventually made it less scary and easier to endure, as I came to realise that there will be a time when the bottomless darkness will be no more.
