The Actual and the Ideal

"There are two things, the actual and the ideal.
To be mature is to see the ideal and live with the actual.
To fail is to accept the actual and reject the ideal, and to accept only that wich is ideal and refuse the actual is to be immature.
Do not criticize the actual because you have seen the ideal.
Do not reject the ideal because you see the acutal.
Maturity is to live with the actual but hold on to the ideal."
~ Derek Prince

“There are two things, the actual and the ideal.
To be mature is to see the ideal and live the actual.
To fail to accept only that which is ideal and refuse the actual is immature.
Do not criticize the actual because you have seen the ideal.
Do not reject the ideal because you have seen the actual.
Maturity is to live the actual and hold on to the ideal.”
