Перфекционизм с точки зрения чайной чашки

Есть такое упражнение: выбираешь три предмета из окружения, потом выбираешь общую тему (или проблему, к-я волнует) и думаешь об этой теме-проблеме с помощью выбранных предметов.

Сегодня наугад выбрала

1) книги

2) электронный корейский словарик

3) чайная чашка.

Проблема/тема: ПЕРФЕКЦИОНИЗМ.

Commentaries, textbooks, dictionaries,
Assessments and practice books,
Discounted and expensive,
Easy to understand and sophisticated -
Used for various purposes at different times.
The books on my shelf
Remind me of different tasks in my life.

I tend to give each one equal importance
And attempt to read carefully through each page.
I end up working nonstop
Never satisfied with the outcome…
I have a feeling they are not meant to be treated this way.

Just spent five minutes choosing my tea cup.
Couldn’t find the right size;
Indian cups are too small.
Some are chipped, but no one else cares.
The tea break is over.
No time to enjoy the perfect cup I finally found.

Yejin’s digital dictionary is C U T E!.
Perfect shape, size and color.

Will I ever reach that perfection?

Could I try harder?

Should I?

I wonder if there is a better way…
