I’m so glad that I can’t see the future.
Why?
Because it would only cause me to
second-guess myself
and the decisions I am struggling to make right now.
Besides, I probably wouldn’t even believe
what I were to see –
if I’d had a vision of where I am now
five years ago
I’d thought someone had spiked my drink.
And who’s to say that the future
if I were to see
wouldn’t become something else entirely
because I were to have seen it?
Considering how nebulous a concept
even the present is
I consider that a highly likely scenario.
