Is that what the future holds? Apart from the fact that it would be funny, and I would have to find the whole legion to tell them about it, it doesn't sound particularly appealing. It's strange that you have no real control over the future, you can never know what's going to happen, and yet we plan endlessly, desperate for some kind of foothold. I'm hoping to go to university next year, but anything could happen between now and then. I could die, there could be a major war, I could become a helpless alchoholic junky living in a bin with hobos attacking my feet.
It's truly amazing how things turn out. Things you would never even suspect happen, and throw you completely off course. Why make definite plans? If you can't anticipate the future then you're just making vague gestures towards an abyss, a world that is dark to you. Maybe it's better to let things happen and to work towards something you want, don't be definite about anything. It's too easy to get hurt that way when things don't work out like you expect. I find this concept difficult because my world relies on the plans that I make. In day to day life to 30 years from now. Always planning a future I don't know exists.

The future is now, Ais. You already have a hobo (indirectly) attacking you... or has Harrison finally decided he's not fat?
I'm always worrying about the future. Everyone tells me to loosen up and stop getting worked up about such uncertain things as my future work or whatever, but I can't seem to shake the habit of obsessively planning and worrying about things.
worrying does not help. at all.
you cant control eveything, so stop trying.
the future has happened. everything has/is/will happened/happening/happen. you cannot change that, its an undeniable fact.
so, instead of stressing yourself out, why not just relax? sure, do work, but dont get worked up about it. dont let it adversely affect you in any way. thats when your life starts to control you.
The weird thing is, I'm not that stressed about it. It's just something that came into my mind, and I started to think about it.
It's too difficult to stop worrying about the future though. I think it's just one of those things.
