Quotes by Oscar Wilde

Today’s task was to choose a quote, written by Oscar Wilde, and write an interpretation of it on the blogs. I chose a poem about life.

O

ne's real life is often the life that one does not lead.

- Oscar Wilde L'Envoi, 1882

This poem is about our life, and our expectations to it.

It means that things in life often happens for no reason, and that the life you live may not be the life of your dreams. You cannot choose the outcome, you can only dream of what to happen, and to take good decisions that does not harm others.

Many of us have an illusion of the “perfect life” that we want for us selves. This dream-life can give us the wrong impression, and make things harder. When life goes you trough, remember.

You do not choose what your life is like, and you may have a perfect life in your daydreams or in your imagination, but make the best out of your real one, ok?
