You had no say in being born, but you have the ultimate say in how you're going to live.
(self.showerthoughts)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
I liked the quote until I started to think of the negative parameters of such a saying. It comes down to who is saying it < their intention.
'I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.' - Ted Bundy
v.s.
'I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.' - Betty White
Well, to come back to your post they chose to live like that to a degree. I guess for themselves it was nice.
