We like to think we're in control but we never are.

About This Quote

I once heard a quote that said, "We like to think we're in control but we never are." It's true. We often try to control events and things that happen to us, but we don't really have any control. We can only choose our reactions to things based on our own personal circumstances. We don't always have the luxury to decide exactly what happens to us.
