My Favourite Quote

“Life is a shipwreck, but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats.” -Voltaire

This quote is interesting to me because I think it applies to everyone and is a universal mistake, we don’t appreciate things in the moment or at all. Sometimes I feel like I’m waiting for the good times to come to be happy, as if it is scheduled somewhere. Although at heart I believe I’m a pessimist, I know the value of being optimistic and having a good outlook on life which is something I do agree with the quote. I hope because of this quote when I am overwhelmed and busy I won’t forget to find pleasure in what I am doing.
