Waiting For that Perfect Life

That Perfect House, That perfect Wife, That Pefect Family...and the quest for perfection never ends. But if you dig deeper into the anxieties there are just three basic things that you are looking for...You want to do

Whatever YOU want
Whenever YOU want
Wherever YOU want

All the other things are just menifestations of this in the definitions. A perfect house is one which satisfies the above three criteria, same with the Wife, the Family and all the rest. Looking at it from this perspective, for this to happen YOU have to be the center of the Universe. Considering that there can only be a single center, is it really possible that you are that one. Just something to think about.

Typical rationalist approach is that we all have different definitions for the universe but well, if we could define things, we wouldn't get into the problem anyway.
