You cannot wait for an untroubled world to have an untroubled moment. The terrible phone call, the rainstorm, the sinister knock on the door–they will all come. Soon enough arrive the treacherous villain and the unfair trial and the smoke and the flames of the suspicious fires to burn everything away. In the meantime, it is best to grab what wonderful moments you find lying around. Lemony Snicket
About This Quote

This quote is about how you should not worry too much before the inevitable bad things happen. It is about how we should live life to the fullest and appreciate even the smallest things in life. After all, there will always be good and bad times and we should enjoy the good times that we have because we cannot always be happy. You cannot expect to be happy all the time because bad things will come and go and sometimes it is best to just accept that we will have bad times and just move on.

Life is too short to worry about what could or may happen in the future. We should only focus on what is happening right now and make the most of it by enjoying every moment.
