e have control over everything in our lives and that we know what is best for us. However, true understanding and appreciation of life's miracles come from being open to the unexpected.

Instead of clinging to the illusion of control, we should embrace the uncertainty and possibilities that arise from life's surprises. It is in these moments that we can truly experience the beauty and miracles of life.

You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life and death to you. It is easy to say you believe a rope to be strong and sound as long as you are merely using it to cord a box. But suppose you had to hang by that rope over a precipice.
