I just wrote a huge post pretty much about the future, what if's and being worried about what road to take.

And the thing is, everyone worries about that when it all comes down to it. There's no way to tell what could happen. No matter how hard you try to keep that 'vision' of what you're future will be like, there's no way in hell it will definately end up like it. Even if you work so hard to keep it like you want, you still can't predict what will happen.

I want to keep my girlfriend, grow with her. Work at getting a good paying job I could so easily get into right now, so she can feel secure and make a family with me. I would give all my other dreams up for that right now just to have that. I could take that path, I COULD. But why take a path and have a simple roll of the dice not end up in my favor? I could follow my dreams (which I am currently doing), end up with a shitty dice roll still and ponder on 'what if's?'. What if I settled down, and tried making a family with her? Would it have worked out?

To simply put it: I can't tell what will happen either way. And neither can you. And it really sucks.

You could say: "If you and her really want to be together, than no matter what we do should ever come between us". But ya know what, that is totally UNREALISTIC.

Mute, the people who are happy usually just go out, try things, fail, get their shitty times and their great breaks - and the path, while it meanders about and zig zags, ends up roughly where they wanted to be.

Some dumb bastards (like yours truly) do a royal job of screwing it all up. But you usually know better and do it anyway in cases like those.

Biggest thing, aside from avoiding my style of mistakes, is just to try and be happy and be financially capable of surviving while you explore and imagine.

As for prophecy and life - well, every single night I sleep I see an amazingly clear picture of slightly different versions of me living different lives and going through their own little versions of problems. So - hell, if many worlds theory is correct, maybe I do see my future...it just isn't my particular one I get to view. :)

Best of luck in your journey, whatever paths you choose to take. I think you'll succeed.

Life is about taking chances.

You can wonder about the "what if's" forever, but you'll never know until you just "do it".
