What you see is not always what you get.
What you see will never be what you'd truly get.
I have learned another sad truth about life. It will never go the way you planned it. NEVER. If IF you think you are so sure of what will happen, think again. There will always be turns and setbacks.
A song aptly 'metaphorizes' life as a road. Before travelling, you have planned where you're heading. You know your destination. So you get into your car and drive. However, there are signs that warn us of the turns and dead-ends.
Careful drivers would slow down or turn the other way around. Others may overlook the warning signs - the no left turns, no u turns, or one-way road. They might be so preoccupied with other things that they forget to see the environment outside the interior of their cars.
What, then, happens? They get stopped by the traffice enforcers. They get frustrated meeting the dead end realizing they have wasted precious time. Sometimes, they lose hope and return home wishing for a better day tomorrow.
That day sucked for the unnoticing drivers. This, however, does not mean armageddon. A character from A Lot Like Love said something about downfall not being your life but a part of it. Life continues even as you tumble, even as you meet an obstruction.
So what do we do? We make a u-turn and be conscious of the warning signs. Never lose hope. Always be positive.
Problems make you stronger, more independent individuals.
IT just takes time.
I guess my time is not yet up. *_*
