Khrystism #563: Happily ever after = perfection.

At first you might read this statement and think, "Aww... how romantic."

But let me explain...

Happily ever after = perfection in that both are theoretical concepts that are chronically misconstrued in our cultural lexicon of practically-applicable concepts. The statement "happily ever after = perfection" for most people conjures thoughts of some theoretical dream state of pinnacled contentment and bliss. In reality, this statement only becomes possible when the entirety of each concept is both realized and accepted. That is, when you are able to include all of the nuances - all possible permutations - in your understanding of the concept. When you realize that "happily ever after" doesn't exist without work and strife and frustration in addition to the bliss and elation and contentment. That perfection, in practice, necessarily encompasses all the inherent "faults" of a thing and that, in fact, without the faults it is no longer "perfect".

Perfection, as a geometrical concept, implies precise balance.
