Things are only temporary
You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect
them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will

Everything is temporary
. All triumphs, defeat, joy,
sadness that
happen in our life go by. What seems to be very important today
might not be important any more in a month or three months.
And
what seems to be a disaster today can be a great learning
experience three months from now.

pitying me and most of all, I pitied myself. But somehow, deep down

better is waiting
for me. In the end, I started working in Barcelona,
one of the most beautiful cities in the world with lots of culture,
beaches,
a fantastic climate, a great football team, and about 300
days of sun a year (very important for me at that time).
My friends
went directly from pity to envy and from “poor Marc” to “lucky
bastard!”
Look at life with a little more ease and sobriety knowing that
misfortunes pass. Or as Rudyard Kipling in his fantastic poem “If”
says,
