It's about perspective.

...we are all on the same train - and it has one destination.

What you make out of the journey is up to you.

(and as you never know when the train pulls into the station, this means there is no time to waste - enjoy that journey! - or not, no one is responsible for your happiness except you)

I don't have any secrets. ...maybe that's the secret! lol

A life's worth is about the road travelled, not the destination sort of deal, huh? A cliche, still I like it. But I really think you have to be blessed if you're happy. I remember learning the ancient Greek {eudaimonia} is misconstrued as 'happiness' when it actually means something more like 'the good life led.' Seeing as the best lives of history were hard and miserable by any standard, I tend to agree.

GPS has made life so predictable...😂

(never used one - I don't even have a stupid smart phone..)
