"Entonces, en nuestro orgullo, pedimos para el desayuno una tortilla, tostadas y café, y lo que obtuvimos fue una jarra de vino, una hogaza de pan, y tú a mi lado cantando en el desierto, pero fue mucho mejor."
— John Steinbeck

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes we ask for things because we think they’re what we want or need, but life gives us something completely different that turns out to be much better. Imagine going out to eat, expecting plain eggs and bread, but instead, you receive a delightful picnic in a beautiful spot with someone you love. It’s not what you planned for, but it brings joy and creates a wonderful memory. Life often surprises us; what we think we need might not be what truly brings happiness. Embrace the unexpected and appreciate the simple, unplanned moments—they can be more fulfilling than anything you could have imagined.
