A new year has dawned and new adventures await. It could be the same old adventures just repackaged to look new. Or it could be new and improved adventures with little or no similarity to past years. Or it could be misadventures that take center stage. The beauty of the future is we just don't know what adventures will occur, which ones will be exciting, and which ones won't.
If we could live in the present yet know the future, we might avoid the misadventures and revel in the new. But alas, we can't. We must live in the present and hope for positive results in the future.
Isn't that really a better scenario? There would be no adventure in knowing the outcome of the future. It would be like watching reruns on television. There would be nothing new or innovative. Instead it would be the same routine everyday much like the Bill Murray movie Groundhog Day.
Sooner or later that lifestyle would breed contempt.
Spontaneity, a touch of the unknown, and a dose of diversity make for an exciting lifestyle. Live life for the adventure. Don't miss the excitement of not knowing the outcome.
