yup may point ka dun.... we are not living in the future pero darating din ang araw na mapupunta din tayo sa future for me mas maganda sigurong paghandaan natin yung future....and try nating iwasan o gawan ng paraan ang mga ayaw mong mangyari sa future.....

...not being able to achieve my dreams...

[DELISYUS]

> am scared that somebody might harm my sister and brother.....am really scared that other people whose lives are hell might hurt them by accident........

> am scared of my parents' inevitable death

> am scared that my cousin might forget supporting his love child Ela, whom i adore so much

> am scared that something bad, accidents or disease, might take away the life of my "babies" (my nieces and nephews.....the loves of my life)

> am scared that the option to become a mother myself might be taken away from me before i actually make up my mind if i want it

> am scared that i might never fulfill one major childhood dream.....

> am scared to lose friends again, real close ones.....because an ex or a present bf falls in love with one of my friends (again!)

> am scared of ever feeling the despair i went thru last 1999....am really, really scared of that......

> am scared that i might be too scared and not do the right things

oh, DELISYUS, i can relate with your fears.

as for carpe diem attitudes and acceptance removing fear of the future, well....

I've accepted that I cannot protect my little bro and sis as well, but I'm still scared that I may not be enough to help them recover from what life has to throw at them.

I've accepted that love mellows after many years, but I'm scared that there may come a time that I shall become bland in my lover's eyes.

I've learned that there's no sense in worrying about your job in such a volatile area of expertise (art is subjective), but I'm scared that I may not be good enough to even be worthy of considering a future.

okay, *now* i'm depressed.

[morgan_le_faye]

what scares me is that there might not be one, you know?i mean, what if this is as good as it gets?

what if there's nothing to look forward to, but inevitable death and then..NOTHING!

UH-OH, ITS THOUGHTS LIKE THESE THAT DRIVE ONE MAD.

IF THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS, THEN ALL THE MORE THAT WE SHOULD ENJOY THIS LIFE AND LOVE IT TO THE FULLEST. THE MORE WE SHOULD TAKE ASIDE OUR STUBBORN FEARS..IF THERE IS NOTHING AFTER DEATH, THEN WE HAVE NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF.

BUT OF COURSE THERE IS A FUTURE.DO YOU REALLY THINK WE WERE TOSSED INTO THIS UNIVERSE BY AN UNCARING CREATOR?I WILL NOT NAME THE CHRISTIAN GOD HERE, BECAUSE IM GOING TO START ARGUING WITH MYSELF AND THATS NOT HEALTHY AT ALL.

ME, IM JUST WORRIED ABOUT THE FUTURE HERE ON EARTH, BEYOND THAT..WELL, ITS OUT OF MY CONTOL SO THERES NO USE OBSESSING ABOUT IT.

thanks for your opinion...

sabi nila..."don't be afraid" appears in the Bible 365 times. that is for every day of the year. kaya wag na daw matakot. just trust in HIM

[Cookies4Kids]

I used to be deathly afraid of the future before because of all of the uncertainties that could happen in life...

Now, I'm not... actually, I'm EXCITED about the future more so now than ever before

And that is mostly because I CHOOSE not to be afraid anymore. I CHOOSE to embrace life with all of its uncertainties. I CHOOSE to be excited about all the possibilities

I CHOOSE to live life day by day (hence Carpe Diem)... because I believe that if you do, the future will take care of itself

Carpe Diem!

[ReLaTiViTy]

the future and it's uncertainty, that precisely is what scares me. it could be that i'm doing my best in achieving my goal, but what i something happens that everything turns out to be sobrang vague fromt he way i planned it. that'll be sobrang scary.

tama ka diyan! if you believe in God wala kang dapat ikatakot...

just be reminded:

"I don't know what the future holds, but I know who holds the future."
