Because most often that not what we know for sure is what we want, instead of what we need.
And please note that Y (why) is a crooked letter that can't be made straight.

Life is like playing a card game....you turn over all the cards on the table so you can't see the numbers. Then one by one you turn one over....you are looking for a 5 of hearts....but you have to keep turning over many cards to find that one. That is how life is....a card game...sometimes we get what we want fast and other times we have to wait and work for it....make each day you live enjoyable..no matter what you are doing think about how blessed you are...what you are thinking affects your life from day to day....have faith, be kind to others do what is right for your loved ones...and your life will be much richer.....it's not what we can buy with money it's what we have at home that makes us rich. You see this when you get older ....you see the whole picture of life.

For three reason. First, "The whole word is lying in the power of the wicked one". (1 john 5:19) This world reflects the personality of the invisible spirit creature who is "misleading the entire inhabited earth". ( Rev.12:9) Second, mankind has been imperfect and sinful ever since the rebellion in the garden of Eden. Sinful humans tend to truggle for dominance,and this results in wars,oppression,and suffering. (Ecc.4:1; 8:9) Third, Ecll.9:11 mention just read it.

The unexpected is fun. God created us, probably knowing that we would somehow work ourselves into extinction, so he gave us the unexpected so that at least we would have a little hope, fun, and mystery before we meet the horrible fate that is sure to come of our race. Not getting what we want teaches us humility and patience... and most of all, it teaches us to appreciate what we have.

Our wishes are often based on fantasies and mostly are not in tune with reality.We get what we deserve.We get what our choices and actions determine.Often we think we ought to get better from life than we deserve.

"expetation" is the word !
so far what i've learnt from life is that - stop expecting from others and ur life & continue to do ur part......
expectation is the root of all miseries and sadness.

What else could life be? How could you ask any question if every event was predictable and knowable? You would have no mystery, no challenge, no purpose.

life is about moving forward. to move forward there lessons to learn and hard ships to over come. we are still childern and children dont always ask for whats best for them. instead of asking for somthing for yourself try asking for somthing for someone else. take all the best.
