I believe the correct answer is <span>B. Franklin never attains perfection but feels he has grown through his efforts. He says he was quite ambitions about him achieving perfection - he worked hard at it, wanted to obtain it, but ultimately couldn't because no man is perfect. However, he understands that this trial was important for him because it made him a better and happier man - if he didn't strive for perfection, he might never have changed like that. </span>
