Back to the Future

We all want to know what is in store for us in future. Astrology is a science which gets the closest to to foretell the future to us. But even astrology is based on what our current status is, such as the lines on our palm, our present deeds and so on. Ok let us get to the core of the this blog. What would happen if we knew the future? Would it help us in any to lead a better life or would it create disaster. Well, I feel that future should be unknown as then we would not lose hope, we will try to build a brighter better future. We would be hardworking and assume that our tomorrow would be better. If we knew that another person is going to be felicitated for something then some of us may give into envy and probably that would lead to more murders.0
Let us look at the positive side of knowing our future. If we know that the decision we are about to take is going to be wrong we can rectify it but then we would be altering the future and we would be negating what we saw and that would not be our future anymore. Anyways, that is a different topic. We can stop a lot of attrocities like war, murder and so on.
Let us now look at the other aspects of knowing the future. If we know the future and if it going to be bad then we are for sure going to try to change it and if we do then it is no more going to be our future.
This is a very tricky situation. I think the future should be unknown for both the good and bad of it. It would otherwise cause a lot of chaos in both the soceity and in our individual lives.
This whole concept has got me confused. I do not know how well I have conveyed what I wanted to say. Hopefully there is some element of clarity in this blog.
