I'm still not perfect

I believe Perfection is the common goal of everyone and we always exercise with our mental and physical energy to develop ourselves and move towards perfection.
I'm still not perfect
As a learner, everyday, I think and realise, I'm still not perfect
For knowing everything and for knowing nothing
Image from the World mirror reflects my identity, am I a lion or an insect?
Many things to be learnt, I accept it as a learning being
Everyone sees the surface, but the depth by less
Like the rays of sunlight, one can be colorful, but not seen by all
It could be awesome if I could be transparent, by my heart and by my face
I still wish to learn, what could make me rise and what could make me fall
If discipline is everywhere, should I move towards right or should I move towards left
If joys and sorrows surround life, which song should I sing
If nothing is to be taken at last, what is life and what is it's base
Universally if one is alone, in ups and downs, whom shall I call
More you think, more it becomes tougher, is life really a miracle
If life is a natural exam, lets dare to accept its success and failure.
(Lord Buddha has told that the satisfaction is the real treasure of happiness but we kind of people have so much dreams and ambitions that we forget to enjoy the real beauty of life in the excuse of chasing our dreams. No matter how modern, knowledgeable and civilized we think we are, I believe that we are not perfect. Even personally everyday I realise that there are much more things to discover and I think I'm still not perfect but my perception of perfection is perfect.)

Perfection is a direction, not a destination; I think you will agree. A common but rather serious mistake to imagine otherwise.

The Perfect Compare
Beauty of Nature perfection of love,
Greatest gift granted from Above.
Covered with passion music everywhere,
Crafted in eloquence strewn with care.
Shades of green with rushes of of red,
Bluish tints, purple haze spread.
Creating the magic that captures the heart,
The Greatest of Painter, displaying art.
Diamond covered seas, with frills that flow,
Scented flowers and trees arduous glow.
Bringing together the heavenly charm,
With Nature's resplendence serene calm.
Perfection of caricature, greatest of art,
Sonorous music, playing its part.
With anthemic tunes that brings a smile,
Ridden with perfection, picturesque all while.
For the greatest of perfection is the Creator alone,
With love pouring in art in an rapturous tone.
Crafted with passion, perfected with care,
You are the anthem of life, perfect compare.
For I am the Sun, the moon and the stars,
The feeling of Oneness all nears and fars.
The colourful rainbow, the iconic hope,
Flowing silver Silver ribbon that helps life cope.
For perfection is what you want it to be,
Crafted in art, Creative delicacy.
For we are are part of Creative compare,
We Create our love to move in Perfect care.

Thank you Ramaji. I'd be curious to know more about your religious and spiritual experience. The word "Rama' and 'Devi' suggests the name of Hindu god and goddess, so I can guess that you must have faith upon philosophies of Hinduism. Where are you actually from and how is your religious and spiritual journey going on at the moment?
