Perfection
Perfect isn't achievable, however happiness is.
Water is life giving, life holding, and life taking. Water gives you strength- without it we would be no more than ashes on a wounded floor. Water holds you up- without it one could not express emotion, as tears would have long since dried. Water takes lives- without it, no one would move on to the life after this, and there would be no fear in the world.
Fear is a strange thing. We all wish to be seen as fearless, like a warrior in battle, or maybe a firefighter fighting a raging blaze. Yet, one cannot be such without fear. Fear crafts lives- it makes rules and boundaries, such that would be crossed if it weren't for that emotion. It prevents stupidity, and encourages rationality, helping and saving lives in a way which makes it a hero. Yet it remains the villain, in a world where it keeps the balance.
Balance is important too. If one became too nice, too caring, than they would easily be taken advantage of by people who are lacking in that aspect. If one became too scared, too fearful, than they would not explore the wide world and would instead waste their time. If one became to curious, they would take too many risks. If one became to rich, they would lose their charity. If one became to perfect, they would only see mistakes.
Perfect shouldn't be the goal; life flows like a river and stutters like nerves, without an definite end. There will be ups and downs, curves and bumps... it is impossible to tell where one will end up.
Instead, the heart should be followed; it will guide through the raging currents, and rides the stutters in its stride. There may be ups and downs, curves and bumps... follow ones heart, and you will end up with memories of life and joy, and a wish which will grow larger by the day.
So no, perfect isn't achievable, but happiness is the next best step.
