We always chase after perfection, shake off yesterday's dream every morning to start a new one, we look at our lives every day to search in its aspects for the shortcomings of the image without knowing that the price is ages and times devoid of joy, tranquility and contentment.

We want a distinguished job, passionate love, and a stable marriage. We want health, money, smart children, and a successful social life. Then the wishes do not end.

The road extends whenever we look forward behind the completed picture, and the steps widen, so we do not feel the blessings around us and between our hands.

We underestimate what we have achieved and demand more even when we need a break from the hustle and bustle of life.

We postpone all the happiness of the moment, the madness of times that do not repeat, and the laughter of quick departure, in public, we double the fun with a completed picture looming on the horizon, without realizing that it is a mirage.

There is a vast difference between the ambition that drives us to improve our abilities and capabilities and what does not deprive us and prevent those around us from living in the heart of life and enjoying what is available, and between the endless aspirations that take life from us entirely and leave us on its fringes. the people.

How many opportunities have we missed, how many love we have rejected, how many astonishment we have ignored, how many paths have led us away from, how many lives we have not lived in search of perfection.

Managing time between striving and ambition on the one hand and living moments that may not be repeated on the other hand is an art that many of us miss, but it is not difficult to learn and train on. It changes day after day and playing with it, or providing for the invitations of a father or mother by introducing them to friendship and company with them and other many, many things.

The whole picture is a disease that deprives us of the pleasure of relaxation and the need for indifference and chaos at times.

We realize that after the road exhausts us and wake up that we have deprived ourselves of the joy of life in its capacity, and only then choose our own imperfect images to catch the rest of the happy times.

Eternal wisdom is that each of us has a deficiency in his image, so that we may complete each other in the end, so as it is said, “Complete your endeavor, live your day, and do not care about your shortcomings, because no one is perfect.”
