How many times in all the planning, imagining, and wanting has an important event in life disappointed because it was not supposed to be the way it turned out?
Perfect is not achievable in life because our imagined perfect
moment, that picture we create in our heads is impossible to replicated in real
life.
Much of my life I lived with someone who spent great amounts
of time planning for the perfect (fill in any life event), and upon the arrival
of that moment was disappointed, so moved on very quickly in planning the next
perfect moment.
And when they were not planning they were worrying over
the terrible things that might happen.
They spent time we could have been laughing, playing or just
being together as a family consumed by a future that would never come true and always disappointed.
They screwed up their now with pictures of what should in their
head.
Experience each moment for the joy that only it can
bring.
If it rains on your party dance with abandon in the rain.
Find your place of happiness where you are now not in some
future place and don’t fear what is yet to happen it comes at the expense of
your safety now.
