I have planned my whole future, my whole life. And nine out

I have planned my whole future, my whole life. And nine out of 10 times, it never happens the way you want or plan or think it's going to happen.

This quote highlights the unpredictable nature of life and the limitations of human planning. No matter how carefully we plan our futures, circumstances often unfold differently than expected. Embracing this uncertainty can lead to greater resilience and flexibility, allowing us to adapt and find happiness even when things don't go according to plan. It reminds us to stay open-minded and patient, trusting that life's unexpected twists can lead to personal growth and new opportunities.

Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better. If you decide that the wanting truth's more important than the hating truth, just tell her you've forgiven her, even if you haven't. At least she'd feel better. Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

A life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to test our promise, to realize our mortality- and in some lucky cases, to do something after that realization. — Mitch Albom Have a Little...

Sacrfice," the captain said. "You made one. I made one. We all made them. But you were angry over yours. You kept thinking about what you lost. You didn't get it. Sacrifice is a part of life.
