“You can’t control life.”
— Post Malone
Simplified Meaning:
Life is full of unpredictable events, and no matter how much we plan or try to manage everything, things don't always go as expected. Imagine you plan a picnic for a sunny day, but then it starts to rain. You can't control the weather; you can only adapt by finding a new activity or waiting for the rain to stop. Similarly, in our lives, unexpected things happen – like getting sick, losing a job, or facing other challenges. Instead of getting upset over things we can't change, we should learn to go with the flow and be flexible. This approach can help reduce stress and increase our ability to find joy in new and surprising situations. Accepting that we can't control everything allows us to focus on what we can manage – our reactions and decisions.
