This is a response to Julie's post about perfect society.
I think that my favorite piece of this whole statement is that you specifically say that there is no perfect organization to what can and must be. This is such a true statement, and a lot of people underestimate it. What people don't realize is that no matter how much you disagree with certain things about life, there can never be something that satisfies every single opinion. We each need our own little slice of heaven that is reserved for the ones that you are compatible with, and can share a view of perfection.
When it really comes down to it though, you are sort of right, we need some chaos in life to make things interesting from time to time. We are tragic creatures, we strive only for our own perfection in the world, but even if we could have it, there would be so little to occupy our mind, because in the "perfect world" there is nothing left to strive for.
This is a tricky problem to overcome, but the real answer is humbling: we can only have true perfection when we allow ourselves to enjoy the simple things, like gardening for food, and sewing your own clothing... (Whats so bad about doing the dishes by hand sometimes?) My point is that we don't need to spend to much time looking for a group to conform to, we should just be, and appreciate how much fun it can be to just exist. :-)
