Simplified Meaning:

When we plan for the future, we usually think about the things we expect to happen, like going to school, getting a job, or starting a family. These are important steps, but they are just the basic plans. Real, meaningful changes in our lives often come from things we don’t see coming. For example, imagine you get an unexpected job offer in a different city. You hadn’t planned to move, but taking the job leads you to new experiences, new friends, and maybe even a new perspective on life. Or think about a historical event like the discovery of penicillin. Scientists were working on their regular experiments, but they weren’t expecting to find a new medicine. That surprise discovery changed medical history and saved countless lives. By welcoming surprises and being open to new opportunities, we can grow in ways we never imagined. Embracing the unexpected can make life richer and more exciting.
