A fisherman caught a large pearl from the sea and couldn't put it down. However, the pearl has a small black spot on it. The fisherman thought that if the little black dots could be removed, the pearl would become a priceless treasure. So, it scraped off the black spots with a knife. However, after scraping off one layer, the black spots are still there, and after another layer, the black spots are still there, and at the end, the black spots are gone, and the pearls no longer exist.

People tend to stick to perfection and throw away some things they could have, but they can't have perfection, although they can never find the perfect place to search everywhere.

It is understandable to want to pursue perfect things. However, this kind of desire fails frequently. Strengths and weaknesses, strengths and weaknesses, exist in comparison, even the best is not the most perfect.

Tip: High standards are naturally a good wish, but there are buildings outside the building, and there are days outside the building, and everything starts from reality.
