S.O.C.K.S.

This is a little something I learned from my Spanish teacher; if you spell out the words socks really fast, it sounds like eso si que es (pardon my terrible Spanish). Which very losely translates to "that's just the way it is". I always thought this was kind of cool. I've noticed in life, there are lots of "socks" moments. Something happens and all you can say is "that's just the way it is", not much else can be done. We can't control everything in our life, unfortunately. But would we really be happy if we were in total control of every single thing in our life? Maybe yes, and maybe no. Controlling every aspect of our lives would make our world mundane...no surprises, no accidents. Serendipity as we know it would no longer exist. And for some people, that is all that they live for. I believe that things happen for a reason. And yes, sometimes that reason is unclear, or we don't like it...but all I have to say to that is.... S.O.C.K.S.
