Predict your future
    #28383724 - 07/03/23 01:29 PM (6 months, 23 days ago)

I have 3 ways of looking at it and they are ranked 1 to 3 where 1 is most likely:

1. I am God and make world peace.
2. I am not God, only delusional and decide to off myself.
3. I begin living a more normal life (if these racing/intrusive thoughts stop).

Interesting. Is my future a product of my own attention to detail, a product of remote agendas, or of both?

the future is overrated,
I mean you might predict 1 minutes worth of it (by guessing) but then there are still at least 26,280,000 more minutes to go

Well predicting is difficult but forecasting is just a statistical process of mathematical probabilities.

I can say with 95% certainty that I will be making various forecasts in the future, and that I will be watching the rest of the latest Dune trilogy when it is available.

What do you want to come to terms with in your life?

You should predict the future based on that.

Not predicting, PLANNING
Forecasting is regimented gambling.
Anyway, I agree with that trilogy, finished Andor yesterday, waiting on Star Trek and Superman.
Had I only been a bird. wait,
what about Peter Pan :wink:

The plan is to just drift along in suffering until the stewdent is ready.

you begin world peace within and spread out from there to the world
the way to do it is by being honest with yourself about when you have not been peaceful within and with the world around you,
and you practice relaxing and staying peaceful while facing these honest recollections,
this is called insight meditation:
becoming detached from the impulse to disturb peace while observing the triggers.
becoming detached from the impulse to judge and punish yourself while honestly observing the memories.
If you can do it everyone can:
world peace begins this way.
first calm, then insight without judging.
