Have you ever foreseen something in your future that has a very real possibility of happening, something that you do not want to happen, yet at the same time something you know must happen. There are things in life that you must endure in order to be a piece of the puzzle at some later date, the negatives must happen. In life we are all pawns in god's chess game, some things look bad now but will play out at some later date, some are destined to fall, some are destined to rise, and some will merely exist as they do now. I'm not saying I have all the answers, I don't know how your lives will play out so don't ask me, I only [think] I know how events in my life may link up in the future. There is a purpose to every life and every ending, in the future when today is history it will all make sense. In the future everything will make sense, this I know for sure.

I've always found the prediction of the future an ambigous subject. There are people who claim, through use of a medium such as tarot cards or a crystal ball, that they can predict anyone's future. I regard fortune-telling as a novelty, and not an actual act. As far as people not being able to see the actual future, instead have nudges of what might happen or feel that something is going to happen; I believe that this might be plausible to a certain degree. The brain after a certain period, becomes conditioned, causing it to send electrical impulses to the body, which we interpret as "bad feelings". Aside from that, we are no one's pawns, there is no purpose to us aside from living our lives. Nevertheless, I am not a depressed nihilist, rather I am a realist and I need not even state my religious stance, for it most likely has become apparent. Changing from that touchy subject; I also disregard destiny. We choose our future by the actions we take, and reap thier consequences.

I never said I knew for sure what would happen to me, merely that I have an idea how a series of probable bad events could lead to something greater. One can definitely never know what will happen to someone else because one cannot know how another would react in a certain situation, however I believe it is possible for one to predict how they would react in certain situations, especially if they have already been through a roughly similar event. Based upon the career I wish to go into I won't have as much time for family as I or my family would wish. If this circumstance lead to a divorce, well I tend to make really destructive decisions when faced with the fact that I'm suddenly single, if in fact in my future I become divorced *and I'm talking about like after 30* I would probably take on lots of high risk coverage, things like war correspondance ect.

Well, that's just logic...
