a thousand paper cranes

so anyway, the other side of a person having 600 good facets out of a thousand, which i should have talked about, is that when we construct our "ideal" we may have a thousand facets to that.

but obviously, even the best people we know only have those 600 good things. so do we have to stop there and say, well, 6 out of 10 ain't bad?

no, we don't. we can get the other 400 elsewhere. we are not restricted to a single person to care about, to give to and take from.

what on earth possesses you to think that we are? i don't understand that. why crush yourself over not finding someone who could give the thousand things (which is impossible)? what a way to destroy your life, fruitlessly chasing something that does not exist.

and the worst of that is that mrs zen, and all people like her, expect everyone to feel the same. we must all crush ourselves over not finding all thousand things in one package, instead of feeling good about what we do have.

So let her think what she wishes, it'll make you seem mysterious to her. Sometimes getting all the pencils to line up breaks the holder and it's better just to leave them in disarray. It can be tolerated, really.
