Everyone has a modicum of control over their life

Everyone has a modicum of control over their life

Ed Beroset wrote a great post that finished with a common sense reminder that everyone has a modicum of control over their life even in these trying times.
This reminds me of saying taught to me by some Middle Eastern friends. In Arabic

tawakaluu ealaa Allah walikun rabuu baeirakum

English translation

Trust in Allah but tether your camel.

This has never been more true
