I recently read this blog post which prompted me to look back and find the quote and original post she was talking about:
“Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.” - Voltaire
...and then I've stumbled across these two quotes that go so nicely with that concept...
“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for.”
--Epicurus
"We don't have to be perfect today. We don't have to be better than someone else. All we have to do is to be the very best we can."
--Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin, "One Step after Another,", Nov. Ensign 2001 pg. 25
I'll be back to update the past two months of my crafts soon, but I thought that in the stress of the holidays it would be good to share these.

Unfortunately, I'm not comparing myself to perfection, only to adequacy... ...and I'm still discouraged. And I don't want to be the best I can be. I feel like regressing through pupal stage and becoming a grub again. Sigh... ...someday I will sleep again?
