This quote is about the uncertainty of time. We all know that time seems to pass quickly, and we might feel a lack of control over it. However, when you look deep you will realise that you still have a lot of control over how you spend your time. This quote reminds us the difference between controllables and uncontrollables in our life. It reminds us that even though time seems to slip away, we have the agency to make the most of it. We can be the pilots of our own lives, choosing how to spend our time and pursue our goals.
