the good life?

"The truth is we know nothing, not where our cars will fail or when our buses will stall, whether our places of employment will be there when we arrive, or wether in fact, we ourselves will arive whole and alive at the end of our journeys. Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that. the quicker we will be able to treat life as art: to bring all our energies to each encounter, to remain flexible enough to notice and admit when what we expect to happen did not happen. We need to remember that we are created creative and can invent new scenarios as frequently as they are needed"
-Maya Angelou

Okay, so that quote is really long, but it i liked it because she talks about how people live there life expecting, when in life you can't really expect anything because no one can tell the future, the future is something untold about and uncalled for.
