Life is made up of uncertainty. Each time we breathe out, we don’t know if we’ll breathe in again.

Despite all our efforts to picture the unfolding of events as managed, orderly, fixed, we don’t know what will happen next.
Sharon Salzberg

Yann Martel
Life is a flickering candle we all carry around. A gust of wind, a meaningless accident, a microsecond of carelessness, and it’s out. Forever.
