"Likewise, and despite everything I’ve been saying, nobody ever really gets four thousand weeks in which to live—not only because you might end up with fewer than that, but because **in reality you never even get a single week, in the sense of being able to guarantee that it will arrive, or that you’ll be in a position to use it precisely as you wish**.
"**Instead, you just find yourself in each moment as it comes**, already thrown into this time and place, with all the limitations that entails, and unable to feel certain about what might happen next."
