Thank you for your question!
The expression "life's circumstances" refers to secondary factors that might affect a person's life, thus motivating them to act in a particular way. People often use these words when they want to say they were prevented from doing something or pushed to do something because of things they could not control. For example:
"I would have studied arts in university had life's circumstances permitted it." This might refer to a person's precarious financial situation, among other things.
"I would have left Montreal if it weren't for life's circumstances." This might indicate someone had something holding them back from moving, like a loved one in need, among other things.
Even more examples:
"Life's circumstances prevent me from attending concerts as often as I would want."
"Life's circumstances made me study something for the money and not because I really wanted to."
I hope these explanations clarify what the expression means.
Don't hesitate to ask us more questions!
Salut!
