Future

 

"The future is hidden even from those who made it." Anatole France

Life is a glorious mystery. I will never fully understand it. It will always confuse and amaze me. After I have understood one thing, I am presented with a fresh problem. I am not perfect. I am not God. Years ago, this angered and irritated me. I wanted to know everything. I wanted to have the answer to all life's problems. I wanted the power that comes with perfection. I hated being vulnerable, weak, and confused! I hated being human. Yes, that was my problem. I hated being a human being. Today I enjoy the adventure of life. I kneel in awe at life's mingled complexity. Now life is a paradox I can live with.

Help me accept the mystery of life.
