I do question the idea of "making sure your life plays out more like the plan you have set for yourself versus a big book of surprises." How many people's lives actually go the way they plan them out? I think anyone that gets pregnant "unexpectedly" and keeps their baby can agree that there isn't anything wrong with a book of surprises. Afterall, our modern form of BC hasn't been around that long and for thousands of years, ppl have lived their lives off of "a big book of surprises" - and they seemed fairly content in life. I really don't mean to rant, I just wanted to consider how we view "planning" our lives out as better than sometimes allowing the natural route of life to happen.

I do question the idea of “making sure your life plays out more like the plan you have set for yourself versus a big book of surprises.” How many people’s lives actually go the way they plan them out? I think anyone that gets pregnant “unexpectedly” and keeps their baby can agree that there isn’t anything wrong with a book of surprises. Afterall, our modern form of BC hasn’t been around that long and for thousands of years, ppl have lived their lives off of “a big book of surprises” – and they seemed fairly content in life.
