Keto Mom Here!
"If we are going to seize divine moments, we must accept the reality that we have no control over many things. We have no control over when we die, and how we die. We must instead take responsibility for what we do have control over, and that is how we choose to live.

My hope is to help you just be better, whatever your better is, and whatever it is that you're looking for... So chapter three is called "Uncertainty"... He tells a ton of stories, and he basically just talks about, "You don't know, what you don't know".
There's a lot of uncertainty in our life. I think we all could agree that we don't know what's going to happen today. We don't know what's going to happen tomorrow.
