PERCEPTION OF PERFECTION

They learned long ago that a life filled with perfection… has less to do with life itself…and more with their perception: Every night before they fall asleep…as in their bed they lay… she gives him a kiss good night and says, “Thank you for a perfect day.” And every night as they lay in bed…the moment she is through… “For such a perfect day”, he says, “I’d like to thank you too.” This has been their habit throughout their life…they always find a way as they kiss goodnight to thank each other for another perfect day. What makes each day seem perfect to them…is easy to understand It’s spending time together…enjoying life…side-by-side and hand-in-hand. If they’re together in the evening…happy, healthy and smiling… to each other it’s easy for them to say, No matter what bumps along the way they faced, “Thank you for a perfect day.” And they’ve discovered as they’ve grown old together… all these years as husband and wife… When you string so many perfect days together… you end up with a perfect life. Yes, they are living proof the perfect life is out there… the key is finding a way.. to understand the perfect life… begins with a perfect day.
