perfection of life

One day a boy asked him teacher:

Kid: teacher, how can I find perfection of life?

Teacher: go to a flower garden, keep going straight, then
pick the most beautiful flower in that garden and keep going straight and u can't go back.

After walking though the garden, the boy came back with nothing. And the teacher asked,'where is the flower?' And the boy answered' actually I have found the most beautiful flower, but I thought that there will be another flower in the garden which was better than that flower, but I can't went back'.

And the teacher said, that's live, more and more we looking for perfection, more and more we can't find it, because the true perfection is not exist, the genuine thing is sincerity to accept shortages
