Idealism & Realism

Image from Flickr, personally edited. No copyright infringement intended.

To be an idealist is to reach for the stars. However, idealists often become lost in their dreams, and forget the real world around them; and as a result can acquire an out-of-touch aura about them. Realists on the other hand are more grounded in reality (hence the name), and as a result are often better prepared to deal with [imperfectionism]. However, as they focus too much on reality, they often aim lower than can be reached, only aiming for what can be reached with assurance, and as a result often miss out on the few times humanity does reach excellence.

Indonesian churches in the GTA are holding a belated Christmas event called "Christ, Our Source of Peace and Unity", on Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 5PM, located at the Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia (129 Jarvis Street). Doors are open to everyone, as you are welcome and encouraged to come. The cost is free and there will be a Christmas service (our band is in charge of the Praise and Worship) as well as some entertainment and icebreaker activities. Dinner is provided. Please keep in mind, however, that the service and most of everything else will be conducted in Indonesian.
