A man went in search of one perfect moment. The price he had to pay was the rest of his life.

  1. Sometimes a perfect moment is all we need. If we concentrate in the now, all the moments can be perfect. We have everything we need in any given time. The problem is, most of us are always looking to the past or the future for that moment...

  2. Some lessons take a life time to learn. If we pay attention we might actually learn it.

  3. What a sad desire. It'd be hard to never live up to expectations of perfection. I couldn't imagine.

  5. I’ve recently shared many perfect moments Marty and if they last the rest of my life I’d die a very happy man.

  6. Mine occurred July 12, 2008: I married the love of my life. I pay the price gladly every day.

  7. There is always a trade off. We sell our souls for coke cans. The perfect moment seems infallible.

  12. This one sent shivers through me. So many, many people are perennially dis-satisfied with their lot and unable to accept life on life's terms. It's so important to enjoy the journey, even when it's bumpy and raining!

  13. Excellent...In the search for perfection, the presence of perfection is missed.

  15. A great and wise person once pointedly told me that "Perfectionism can be cured."
    I'm cured. But not perfectly. . .
