What is Perfection

Just think about it, what is a life of perfection to you?
Let's just look at the weather for example.
What would it be like to wake up every day and know that it would be Sunny and 75 EVERY SINGLE DAY.
It's funny a few years ago while working in Southern California and visiting, one of the guys made a statement, "I'm so tired of 75 and Sunny - I'm ready to move because it is always like this". He said he was just tired of it. Of course I was amazed since I just spent a week in Fargo ND with negative temperatures.
On the other side of the coin while spending time in Joplin MO after a little snow was surprised to hear all the conversation about how the snow was so unwanted.  Dealership employees were discussing all the negatives and the Dealer thought it was funny.  So I ask what he was thinking?  He said he thought it was funny that people are spending thousands of dollars to go to snow and they have it and don't want it.
I believe that most people would get tired of perfection.  It's a moving target.  So how do we find comfort?  How do we obtain long term happiness?
It starts with your "Attitude" and how you respond to what happens to you.  Every day you will have many opportunities to right your attitude.  You just need to win most of those mental battles.  You must accept that you don't control everything, and move forward.
Make it a great day, it's your choice.
