The pursuit of perfect

It seems a lot of people are wasting a lot of time unhappily searching for perfection. The perfect man. The perfect job. The perfect house. The perfect pet. The perfect life.

The bad news is perfect doesn't exist. Your man will always leave his dirty underwear on the floor. Your job will never be as fun as a day at the beach. Your house will always have something leaking, creaking or falling apart. Your pet will pee on your new carpet and chew on your shoes. Your life will sometimes be sad, depressing, scary, difficult and uncertain.

The good news is you don't need the perfect life to have a perfectly happy life.

I wholeheartedly agree. Perfect would be boring anyway, right? Right?!?!?
