You can never be perfect.

Perfection goal that changes, never stops moving. Can chase, cannot catch.

That is a quote from Abathur, from Starcraft 2. And in many ways it exemplifies humans. Or at least it exemplifies my view of humans.  Humans have this knack for wanting more than we have. Sometimes it's rooted in jealousy, other times greed. Maybe even just a desire to improve but it seems to be there in all of us.

You can look at others struggling forward and you think "why though?" They seen to have it perfect what more is there to chase. But the moment you attain something close to what they have then you see more, want more. That's why you can never catch perfection. Because in taking a step towards it you realize that it takes you further from something and reveals something else to strive for.

We can never be perfect. But still. I intend to try my damndest to come close.
