I'm sure all of you have sorted out your life in some way. Whether which uni you'll be in, which degree you're pursuing, the job you're applying to or even what's for lunch. There's just always something to think about. And many that I know would hate talking about the future. It's such a big step to take. It freaks me out! We spend a lot of time not knowing. I wish I knew what the future held, at least high hopes won't exist.
'Don't put on high hopes to be crushed by the results in the near future' - Norain
But what if we could see our future? You'll know where you stand in the next 5/10 years, who's your significant other, how many kids you'll have. If you could see everything, where's the big surprise. A lot of the joy in life comes from surprise. What's the point of living if at the end you see your death. I wouldn't want to know how I'll die. Only the Almighty deserves to know.
And knowing what's coming discourage decision making and learning from your own mistakes. Maybe He knows not knowing is the best for us. Not knowing makes us experience life, making life decisions and giving our best shot. When you know you can't predict what happens next, you look at the world differently.
Let's say if you jot down your plan on becoming a successful person. Every steps you take matters. Small decisions take a big part of your plan. From time to time, you start to learn from the past and being ready for the future. When I say ready, set your mind not everything will go your way. That's how life is.
It's upsetting when things aren't going as you planned, so take a step back and calm down. Process your emotions, rant all you want but don't linger around the problem. Don't stop thinking but do acknowledge your thoughts. I believe everything happens for a reason so always be ready for the worst. Maybe you are where He wants you to be, everything has been fated for us. Just suck it up and fight through the pain. Everything will be alright
