I was thinking about perfectionism the other day. This is a subject near and dear to me, as I
do tend to be a bit of a perfectionist myself and am well aware of double edged

the color changing beauty of the precious opal comes about because all through
it there are tiny imperfections, that reflect the light back at different
angles. The beauty of it, comes from the imperfections. Geology.com - click for more information on opals and other gems
