The Future

We do not know what the future will be like. The future hasn’t happened. However, understanding the law of cause and effect, we will understand that the future never just happened. It is ‘created’. So, if we want to have a better future, we have to pay more attention to what we are doing now. The future will be the result of our actions today.

They say you have to plan for your future because that’s where you are going to spend the rest of your life. That is true but at the same time, you do not want to spend too much time on planning your future because we do not know what is going to happen from moment to moment. The future may not happen. Knowing how fragile life is, there may be no future. This is not being pessimistic, this is a fact of life.

So, it is important that although we must plan for the future, we have to live in the present moment, where life is happening, and unfolding – moment by moment.

It’s a bit like buying insurance. You don’t want to spend all your hard earned money on insuring yourself, or your life. You buy some in case you might have need for it. Meanwhile, you take good care of your health, so that you may not have to claim any of it.

Similarly, you don’t want to spend so much time planning for the future that you forget to live, to enjoy yourself. By living the present well, we are also shaping our future. Don’t worry about what the future has in store. Live each day well and be contented with what you have achieved, or what the day may bring.
