I Often Think...

 

Vincent Van Gogh

I often think of a 'perfect day'. 

A day where I am present. 

A day where I accomplish tasks. 

A day where all is well and good. 

Funny, right? 

While that thought of a ‘perfect day’ 

still ruminates inside of me, 

I'm seeing more, 

and allowing for room for the unknown. 

For what is perfect? 

Is it even possible?

I think of Van Gogh 

and his paintings are NOT perfect. 

In fact, they are beautifully imperfect. 

And perhaps that is what makes them so powerful. 

I can see and feel him working out, 

working through some struggle in his painting. 

He's in the moment 

and grappling with all the imperfections.
