John A Passaro says “Life is like a train ride”

Sometime in 2016 was when I decided to write or rather wanted to start a blog. But being a master procrastinator, I started this blog only in 2017. However, I used to write and save it in drafts, which I believe most people do. Now is when the draft from 5 years ago goes live. Below follows..

Top 3 fav quotes from #MoneyHeist “Love can’t be timed. It has to be lived.” “In this world, everything is governed by balance. There’s what you stand to gain and what you stand to lose. And when you think you’ve got nothing to lose, you become overconfident.” “First times are special. Unique. But the last times are beyond comparison. They are priceless. But people don’t know it’s their last time.” #moneyheistfever #bestseries #famousquotes #homequarantine #lockdown #bellaciao (at JP Nagar, Bangalore South) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-R1jAElcFJ4IBpDfyWYm0zBCkFe-fv1KYJiRo0/?igshid=17mvsg5n3jfba
