Ester asked why people are sad.
“That’s simple,” says the old man. “They are the prisoners of their personal history. Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan. They never ask if that plan is theirs or if it was created by another person. They accumulate experiences, memories, things, other people's ideas, and it is more than they can possibly cope with. And that is why they forget their dreams.”
-Paulo Coelho
But the happiest people are the ones who understand that good things occur when one allows them to.

You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
-Paulo Coelho
Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you.
-Jim Rohn
Sometimes we give up our dream to accept a larger role in someone else's dream.
