"If you want something, it will elude you. If you do not want something, you will get ten of it in the mail"

This quote by Anna Quindlen suggests that the things we desire most in life frequently seem to escape from us, while the important things we do not desire seem to come to us in abundance. It highlights the irony of human nature, where our desires and desires can frequently lead us to dissatisfaction and aggravation. The first part of the quote suggests that the more we chase something, the more elusive it becomes. On the other hand, the 2nd part suggests that when we let go of our desires and expectations, we may be pleasantly shocked by what comes our method. This quote works as a tip to not become too connected to our desires and to be available to unforeseen chances that might come our way.
