Recently, I came across a quote that really stuck with me,
"Don't be disappointed by rain when you wish for flowers."
It oh-so beautifully explains what I have been telling everyone in every single one of my posts, along with my life as well. You can never expect everything to go smoothly, no matter how certain you are about life. Have it be your career, job, family, school, projects or even a homemade pie. When you wish for something good, the bad needs to come for you to understand the value of the good. The flower you are wishing for can only nourish when there will be rain. Without rain, it may grow but not for long. AND it also needs water, care, and a little bit of uncertainty to get to its full potential. Maybe it'll get smooshed by some unknown stranger's feet, or a tsunami may come. Who knows? maybe it'll grow back or be alive no matter what the circumstance is. The chances are always 50-50. You CANNOT predict everything, plan everything, or fight every drawback. What you can do is just try. It is the best way to understand yourself. I always perceive life as Whenever something good happens, something bad will also, and whenever something bad happens, something good will also. Be the flower and embrace whatever you come across. The end :)
