“Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life.

“I wanted a perfect ending.
Now I’ve learned, the hard way,
that some poems don’t rhyme,
and some stories don’t have a clear
beginning, middle, and end.
Life is about not knowing,
having to change, taking the moment and
making the best of it, without knowing
what’s going to happen next.
Delicious ambiguity.”

- Gilda Radner
