“I’m choosing happiness over suffering, I know I am. I’m making space for the unknown future to fill up my life with yet-to-come surprises.”― Elizabeth Gilbert
What if the future isn’t something to fear—but something to make space for? Elizabeth Gilbert’s quote reminds us that joy is a choice, and the unknown may just be where the magic begins.
Elizabeth Gilbert’s words are a gentle rebellion against despair. In a world that often teaches us to brace for disappointment, she dares us to soften—to believe that joy is not only possible, but worth preparing for. By choosing happiness and leaving room for wonder, we open ourselves to life’s most unexpected blessings. It’s not naïveté—it’s courageous hope.
