Happiness or Perfectness ~~~

1st Quote:
A man and his girlfriend were married.
It was a large celebration. All of
their friends and family came to see
the lovely ceremony and to partake of
the festivities and celebrations. A
wonderful time was had by all.

The bride was gorgeous in her white
wedding gown and the groom was very
dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone
could tell that the love they had for
each other was true.

A few months later, the wife comes to
the husband with a proposal: “I read
in a magazine a while ago, about how
we can strengthen our marriage.” she
offered.

“Each of us will write a list of the
things that we find a bit annoying
with the other person. Then, we can
talk about how we can fix them
together and make our lives happier
together.”

The husband agreed, so each of them
went to a separate room in the house
and thought of the things that annoyed
them about the other. They thought
about this question for the rest of
the day and wrote down what they came
up with.

The next morning, at the breakfast
table, they decided that they would go
over their lists.

“I’ll start,” offered the wife. She
took out her list. It had many items
on it enough to fill 3 pages, in fact.
As she started reading the list of the
little annoyances, she noticed that
tears were starting to appear in her
husbands eyes.

“What’s wrong?” she asked. “Nothing”
the husband replied, “keep reading
your lists.”

The wife continued to read until she
had read all three pages to her
husband. She neatly placed her list on
the table and folded her hands over
top of it.

“Now, you read your list and then
we’ll talk about the things on both of
our lists.” She said happily.

Quietly the husband stated, “I don’t
have anything on my list. I think that
you are perfect the way that you are.
I don’t want you to change anything
for me. You are lovely and wonderful
and I wouldn’t want to try and change
anything about you.”

The wife, touched by his honesty and
the depth of his love for her and his
acceptance of her, turned her head and
wept.

Though of the day:
In life, there are enough times when
we are disappointed, depressed and
annoyed. We don’t really have to go
looking for them.

We have a wonderful world that is full
of beauty, light and promise.

Why waste time in this world looking
for the bad, disappointing or annoying
when we can look around us, and see
the wondrous things before us?

I believe that WE ARE HAPPIEST WHEN we
see and praise the good and try our
best to forget the bad. Nobody’s
perfect but we can find perfect ness
in them to change the way we see them

2nd Quote:
*I was wondering, if I was a perfect girl, would I be happy about it or would I be stressed out everyday cos no one is perfect enough to keep to my expectations and demands?

I was wondering, if I was living in a perfect world, would I be happy about it or would I be bored since I do not know the meaning of challenge, as everything in the world is already laid perfectly for me?

I was wondering, if I was living in a perfect house, would I be happy about it or would I be having sleepless nights thinking that someone might try means and ways to rob me of my perfect property?

I was wondering, if I had a perfect friend, would I be happy about it or would I always be feeling envious of him or her, knowing that I will always overshadowed by my perfect friend?

I was wondering, if I had a perfect man, would there be a and they live happily ever after ending or would I be feeling insecure everyday, knowing that there would be too many girls trying to break me away from my perfect man?

I was wondering, if I had a perfect family, would I feel happy forever or would I be sad knowing that I had missed out the bitter sweet kind of memories which makes life more interesting?

I was wondering, if I had a perfect life, would I be satisfied with it or would I still be wondering if theres a life that is more perfect?

One thing for sure, I do know that humans will always be searching for the perfect kind of life. We would want something to always be better than what we have currently. Only up to the point whereby we lose something, then shall we learn to treasure it. This is plainly because humans always forget that actually the perfect kind of life is truly how we depict it to be. I have learnt to treasure the things and people around me cos I realize that they are the ones that makes my life no less than perfect.

my own words:

-> are we looking for perfectness that will bring us to nothing at the end? yes we couldn't find what we want till now. but do realize one thing that "happiness" will always make us feel the meaningful in life.
