Now that I've realized that I DO live in a perfect world, I do it fairly free from desire.
What could be better? A world where I could have everything I desired? A world entirely at peace? A world where the sun shines every day? A world where I didn't have physical and mental challenges? BORING!
No question that there are others who have lives much, much harder than mine and would probably be happy with just regular meals and a safe place to sleep.
For 25+ years I went through that "highly driven for success" part of my life, desiring a bigger house and fancier cars. Now I'm happier to just accept what comes and be satisfied with what I've got. And I'm getting rid of stuff I don't use, need, or care about.
My life may not always easy or fun, but it's mine.
And life is perfect. ;)
