Best laid plans...
Whom ever made that observation about mice and men must've known from first hand experience. Looking at all those men and mice passing him by, I guess he might've ended up in some alley at one point in his life. Did a quick Google search and it looks like some dude named Robert Burns came up with it.
People often strive for stability and equillibrium, but the funny thing is that these things occur in nature over a long period of time. What may seem like a hectic, random series of occurences often becomes a clear pattern when you step away from things. Is it better to head down a path with a clear end or go someplace unfamiliar? Over the long run everything works out. I could die in that unfamiliar path, but I would've died anyway just maybe a few decades sooner.
But regrets burn forever. Must only people with nothing to lose be the ones to try and have everything to gain? I guess it's true what people say, live each day as if it's your last.
Time makes a fool of us all, no?
