"As a human being, you are perfectly imperfect, gloriously flawed, your story forever unresolved. You will never reach a state of perfection in time, and that is why you are so lovable and human. Your flaws give you character, your quirks make you unique, your wrinkles and battle scars sing of a life fully lived, a world fully tasted, a song fully sung, a long road, traveled well.
Yet at the same time, beyond your personal history, your narrative, your beliefs, your memories, your plans, your dreams of past and future, you are nothing less than Consciousness itself, awake and alive here and now, prior to identification as a separate “me,” an incomplete seeker looking for home.
You are undivided from the vast Intelligence that moves the planets on their axes, inseparable from what I Am, and your human “flaws” pale in comparison to your cosmic perfection, your deathless and timeless nature, your Original Face prior to even the big bang. You are so imperfect, and that is exactly what
makes you so perfect."
-- Jeff Foster, The Way of Rest
