I’m thinking of how unexpected yet oddly preordained life can be. Events are upon you in an instant, unforeseen and without warning, and oftentimes marked by disappointment and tragedy but equally often leading to a better understanding of the bittersweet truth of life.

Sometimes that happens to us, way before we’re ready, a moment that changes everything. Life will be going along, like normal, and then one day without warning you find out that nothing will ever be the same.

Things always happen when you least expect it

Life takes us by surprise and orders us to move toward the unknown -even when we don't want to and when we think we don't need to.

Life takes us to unexpected places sometimes. The future is never set in stone, remember that.

The worst possible turn cannot be predicted. It occurs by chance.

Truly nothing is to be expected but the unexpected.

So much of what happens by chance forms what becomes your life.

You think you know what your life will be like thirty years from now and suddenly you’re doing something you couldn’t have planned five minutes ago.

Life is incredibly contingent and unexpected.

What we anticipate seldom occurs; what we least expected generally happens.

Things happen. We had not wanted them to happen. They had arisen out of the ashes of chance.

Life is Quicker Than a Blink of an Eye
