Wouldn't it be nice if we could always have spring, stay young forever, relax all the time, have anything that we want, and worry about nothing?
Unfortunately everything in this world fades.

For me, everything is perfect in life. How can you know the good things in life if you haven't experience the bad things? There may be flaws in life but that's exactly the point. What makes life perfect is its flaws. Life is perfect because of its imperfections.

Well said...nice =)
It's how our mind interpret the meaning of perfect regardless of what it might appear to be, say a day started with a cup of coffee and a good night sleep is perfect enough for somebody. Enough food to feed the family is perfect enough for another.
It's all relative isn't it? Just because we got used to certain kinds of lifestyles that we thought that our "perfection" has its own quota, where we don't realize that it's always about how we "feel", not how much that we own or achieve.
My point being---we won't be content, unless our hearts are full.
Thanks for the response 7thblue, I'm marking yours the best so far, congratz! =)

That was nice too. Thank you so much. I am really learning a lot here in myLot. And you are exactly right too about the satisfaction of one's being unless the heart is full. Actually, it's just enjoying what life has to offer for you. That's it and everything will follow.
Anyway, this one is my FIRST best response. So I guess it's pretty special for me. Thanks hati3kuro. See you around here in mylot.
"We won't be contented, unless our hearts are full..." ---I will remember this from you. Thanks.

When a baby is born he is an infant but every day that passes he grows older. Soon he will be a school child and later on he will be a grown up. I used to envy my mom getting all those letters when I was a child. I didn't know it was just bills. Wouldn't it be excellent if every day was hot and sunny. It would be superb if I could relax a lot of the time in spa pools. It would be lovely if I could just go anywhere in the world at a moments notice. It could be a week in the Seychelles to relax or a month in South America for some exploring. Many people dream about having lots of money but it doesn't make them all that happy. There are always some worries and time is ticking past. Yes, everything tends to fade. I think a fun age to be is 16 to 25. After that it gets less enjoyable it seems. Good health is essential to a perfect life. As people get into old age they can have some health worries. It is not possible to stay aged 16 for eternity. Happy memories should be collected over the years.

Hello max =)
I used to envy my mom too, because she didn't have to do any homework at all...but later on I found out that she had to deal with payments, reports, study plans for the students (shes a teacher), etc and that's when I realized that she's way busier than I am...I even thought about being an animal sometimes when I was a kid, coz they didn't have to worry about being scolded by teachers in school! lol
"Many people dream about having lots of money but it doesn't make them all that happy." Can't agree more to this =)
And yeah, time is ticking faster than ever and I think that we're going somewhere. It'd just be waste if we just die in the end not knowing our purpose of life.

Our life is totally perfect - because the creator has thought more than us.WE have a limited thinking but he has a broad thinking.
If life is not perfect then everything in the world will go in an imperfect way.
Take for example SUN GOD - he is perfect - has he taken any leave and enjoyed like you are enjoying.I can give one more and also many more examples but let us understand first how perfect is life planned by God.
You are enjoying free air provided by the almighty continuously for 24 hours - no leave to Air God also did you thank HIM at any time for making you live comfortably......No I think - instead for your convenience you have designed vehicles which have totally polluted the air we breath. But still AIR God is doing his duty and not punishing us. If he takes leave say for a few minutes just for enjoyment then you will see the whole world comfortably sleeping for E V E R.
Now mind is becoming hot to blow all the examples - but I will stop here....Please suggest me how are my thoughts....

Are you like saying that there happens to be a lot of Gods managing this world that we live in? Even Apple has only one Steve Jobs, if you know what I mean.
