I disagree. Always aim for perfection as long as you accept that it is unlikely to be attained. At least you can get within spitting distance and then still have something to aim for.
Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead. Louisa May Alcott

The spot is wonderful. And you will soon be out there enjoying it more and more. Put another layer on the wall, you will be much happier since you know if would make all the difference. Emily
