If we actually got control of our lives the way we all profess we want to, we would be eternally bored. Dance the chaotic dance of life and ride the ride while you can. There will be bad days, but there will be bliss. Let go of wanting to control it, lean into the discomfort and let the unfortunate surprises become your fondest memories. A life without the full spectrum of emotions isn't much of a life at all.
