I wonder how it is to know details of the future. What is it like to know the coming life events in the future—however vague the exact date is—and have certainty about that? Prophecies of this kind perhaps provide us less a map to avoid challenges but an opportunity to better ourselves, to prepare for it now.

We are clinging to a speck of dust in this mighty galactic space. We are so helpless in many physical ways, and yet what we do on this planet has so many consequences for our personal stories.

Death approaches. Deadlines approach. Departures are soon. Death is not the end of life, it is a change of life.

So, sure. Things are out of your control. Planets spin and meteors are on a collision course centuries away. But what kind of momentum will you generate to meet that coming challenge?
