Slow down

Why is it that as humans, we focus on what we don't have rather than what we do have? The idealistic realm in which we all strive for, smothers our perception to what treasures we already posses. We're inclined to believe that perfection is unattainable thanks to such phrases as "nobody is perfect", so if it is out of reach, why do people lose their souls in search of it? Or, what if perfection is truly attainable and whilst we are all venturing to uncover some miracle, it is right in front of us, yet we are too swept up to even notice? While everything begins to spin out of control, I've opted to sit back and enjoy the view of my own version of perfection... love.
