: : Here's a good saying I came across recently which relates to what you're saying: If you want to be happy, put your effort into controlling the sail, not the wind. The source for the saying is unknown.

: That's a very cool saying... It's so true! Some things are just COMPLETELY out of your hands.
I often wonder, though, do we really even have control of the sail? Time and time again life shows me that even when I do everything just right with the sail, the boat still doesn't go where I want it to. It is completely out of my hands.
