Things never go smoothly.
Things don't always go smoothly.
When we interact with others from a place of compassion without expectations, things are set up to go pretty smoothly.
I will have nothing to do with a God who cares only occasionally. I need a God who is with us always, everywhere, in the deepest depths as well as the highest heights. It is when things go wrong, when good things do not happen, when our prayers seem to have been lost, that God is most present. We do not need the sheltering wings when things go smoothly. We are closest to God in the darkness, stumbling along blindly.
Even if you are planning a birth with an epidural, the evidence suggests that a doula can help make things go much more smoothly.
Life isn't always easy and we are never guaranteed that things will always go smoothly…It progresses with an almost constant series of challenges, but these obstacles are just detours that we have to take in order to meet our ultimate goals. No matter what sort of adversity or challenge you might face, you can always believe that, with hope, it can be conquered and, in the end, you will be stronger for it.
One of the many delights that I found in directing was that you plan so many things so meticulously so that they go smoothly. But you also have to leave time and space for spontaneous emotional moments to arise.

If you've never founded a company, rest assured it never happens as elegantly and smoothly as articles in 'Inc.' and other business magazines or case studies suggest.
Transitions don't always go smoothly; you need a recovery process.
You always imagine everything will go so smoothly in the Olympic season.
Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that. That's nonsense. Make up your mind, you'll never use crutches or a stick, then have a go at everything. Go to school, join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.
If everything was going smoothly you would never build character.
I love and in a way need, a private secret place. It's a kind of deep obsession, but I also love to need and be with friends and the two things often need to be together... it's a painful conflict that will never be smoothly resolved.
The shot will go smoothly only when it takes the archer himself by surprise.
Assume any career move you make won't go smoothly. They won't. But don't look back.
I always tell people that a revolution is not an event, it's a process. It is a struggle. And it doesn't usually go smoothly.
