“Better the uncertainty of tomorrow”
— Fernando Pessoa
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes it's better to face the unknown future rather than stick to something that's not great now. Imagine you have an old car that breaks down often. Instead of getting stressed over every trip, you might decide to save up and buy a new car. Even though you don’t know when you’ll get the new car or exactly how it will work out, it can still be better than always worrying if the old car will start. This saying reminds us that taking a chance on a new situation, even if it's uncertain, can be better than staying with something that isn't really working. It's about being brave enough to face the future and hope for better things, rather than being stuck in a place that makes you unhappy.
