Yesterday my grandmother had a moment of insight. She was complaining about a caregiver who she doesn't like. After a moment of silence, she said:

"I expect everyone to be perfect".

I laughed out loud. She asked why. I said I laughed because it was true.

"But nobody is perfect", I offered back.

She said that's true. After a moment of silence, she offered the conclusion:

"So, I'll never be happy".

Indeed!
