Having a national orientation
on self-perfection and success is fine, it is, in part, what makes America
great and what makes Americans exceptional. But within that, we should remember
that we are not now, nor will we ever be, perfect and that our measurement of
success should include unconditional acceptance of our imperfect selves. If we can accomplish that unconditional
acceptance of our imperfect selves and if we could instill that unconditional
acceptance of our imperfect selves in our children, we would transform and
elevate our nation and our world to magnificent heights beyond what any
generation before had ever dreamed possible.
