Be not afraid of what the future will hold.
We do not know exactly as to what the future will bring.
Entropy is a bringer of chaos, and chaos is impossible to predict.
We may be able to guess what events will occur in the near future, but our predictions of the future will become increasingly less accurate, and more vague and large-scale as the go further along the arrow of time.
But let it be known.
A fear of the future, of one's own future, and the future of those they care about, is natural.
Self-preservation is why humans have survived so long, as opposed to just blindly rushing in and doing a task.
For a disregard of one's safety is always foolish.
But we cannot lay dormant forever, no matter how fearful of the future we are. For the future never waits. You cannot stop it.
For this, remember, that if you cannot know what the future will bring, you must cherish every good time and every silver lining. You must find hope in the bad days, and take comfort in the good days.
An old story is as such:
An old king sent out his three wisest philosophers to come up with a saying that fights in both good times and bad, in drought and flood, in exceeding wealth and staggering poverty.
They thought for many days and many nights, and returned with 4 words.
"This, too, shall pass."
This moment, too, shall pass. Cherish it, for you cannot go back.
Look to the future, and chaos, and the unpredictability of the world we live in, not to be scared, but to grow, and to remember to savour the world and every moment we have with it.
