Face it, most of the time we want things to be perfect. Who wouldn't? No one wants to aim for less than the best. BUT what happens when our happiness, our mood, our emotions RELY on things being perfect?  Are we truly happy when we give up without even trying because we want things to be so perfect? Are we happy when the house never seems perfect enough so we just never invite anyone over? How do you feel when you are so fearful of failure that you throw your dreams away? It's time to look at our lives and be grateful for our progress.
