Timing

Someone told me the other day that things tend to happen in their right moment, even if we feel that they are taking too long or that others have taken too short.

While certainly this cannot be objectively true (things can always happen more favourably), it reminded me of two popular sayings:

Los tiempos de Dios son perfectos. (The timings of God are perfect.)

Cuando te toca, ni aunque te quites, y cuando no te toca, ni aunque te pongas. (When it's your time, it doesn't matter if you move away, and when it's not, doesn't matter if you put in place.)

While I rationally wanna hold that thinking in this way is a means of comforting oneself with whatever outcomes we get in life, I like the feeling of letting go of things I cannot control and just admit that there are things I will never be able to comprehend.
