Shownotes Transcript

It's something we go through all the time, struggling toward what we want out of our lives while at the same time realizing it's never going to be exactly the way we want it to be.  One of the most difficult things to live with is the idea that the perfect situation for our life is out there somewhere just waiting for us to find it, but knowing that the odds of us ever finding it are slim to none.  Just about everyone ends up having to settle for something far less than what they really want because we finally come to understand that it's just not worth worrying after anymore and being satisfied with what we can get leads to a greater sense of contentment.
