About This Quote
You can never know where life takes you. One day you wake up and find yourself in a different situation than you anticipated. This does not mean that you should always expect the unexpected. If you try to plan out your life, you end up with a life that is full of failure.
Instead, it is better to live each day as if it were your last. You may not know what will happen tomorrow, but if you do something today that makes you happy, your happiness will turn into a habit and eventually blossom into a lifestyle.
