One day I’ll paint the perfect sunset-- if I can only find the words.

About This Quote

The perfect sunset is something that will never exist, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t try to capture the spirit of the sunset. By trying to capture it, we can feel better about ourselves and stop worrying about our own shortcomings. When you try to paint the perfect sunset, you are only painting the perfect sunset once. There is no chance at recapturing what you create. But by trying, you can make your sunset better than others who fail because they stopped trying.
