About This Quote

In life, we all have things that we have lost and things that we have found. We can’t live a perfect life without losing something and we can’t live a perfect life without finding something. People often say that their lives have been a series of losses and gains. In this case, the person is speaking about the fact that his life has been a series of losses and gains. He might be talking about the many times in which he has lost loved ones or other people close to him, but he could also be talking about the many times in which he has found something, such as an opportunity or a friend.
