My recipe for anything that is supposed to be "perfect" is to let go of that notion of perfection. So that leaves Leo Tolstoy's observation, "If you want to be happy, be."

sandnsun	Posted Nov 4th, 2009 at 7:42PM I don't believe in perfection. I do believe happiness comes from a big bowel of vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup and to have the ability to look at yourself in the mirror and smile. Rated: +1Vote for this!
