About This Quote
This quote is about a woman who was very cautious in life. She thought that nothing was ever going to happen, but in her life, nothing was going to happen. Such was the will of God! The future was a dark corridor, and at the far end the door was bolted. The world is full of people who are always looking for some big change in their lives.
They only want the big change because they think that it will give them happiness and lead them to success. Unfortunately, most of them are disappointed with what happens when they get what they want. This leads many of these people into depression where they simply give up on everything and live their lives crawling along the dark corridor.
