Weren't we promised jetpacks? And space boots?

Life doesn't go as planned. There. I said it. Now that that's out of the way, let's start with today's rant of insanity from the sane. I want you to think long and hard about your perceptions from your earlier years. Back when we thought The Jetsons was how the world was going to be at the turn of the millennium, and we all thought that by buying a DeLorean, we could be Doc Brown and make a flux capacitor. Now look at the world around you. A bit different, isn't it? That's because our perceptions of the world are often formed by our paradigms of the times. And, I don't know about you, but I'm not a psychic (though I wish I could play one on TV).

Really, no one knows how the future is going to go. We can prepare all we want, take every possible precaution, but at the end of the day, Dec. 23, 2012 is still gonna come around just like any other day (Just kidding! We're gonna be nothing but the crispy remains of earth on that day). But does this mean that we need to fear the future? It seems to be human nature to fear the unknown. But does this mean that we should build a 2012 bunker and hide? Well I did. (Just kidding, do you think I would build one, then tell everyone who reads my blog-a whopping 6 people-about it, then try to fit them all in? Doubtful. Just don't go looking in my backyard for an apocalypse bunker).

But really, this post isn't about fearing the unknown, or embracing the future, rather, today, I'd just like to point out that no matter how you look at things, they'll be different than you expected. Like I said previously, The Jetsons haven't landed yet, nor have we met Marvin the Martian, yet the world keeps on spinning. Honestly, we always have such perceptions for the future, even if it's something as simple as getting a test back. And you can plan it however you like, but it doesn't mean your right. So why worry about things in the past, worried how they may turn out in the future? You can't change them, and the future? Well, who knows what's gonna happen.

So really, folks. Why worry about the perceptions of the future? It's like attempting to do a puzzle, without seeing the picture. And guess what? The whole puzzle is the sky. And things always have a way of working themselves out in the end, even if you're not sure what's going to happen. So don't worry, I'm sure the real estate I bought on Mars will be worth something soon.
