How do you see the future?

The future is always an unknown entity, and most of us have only guesses on how it would be. Of course there are fortune tellers who claim they could see the future events, but most of them are inconsistent with their predictions. So I want to ask, how do you see your future, and how do you see mankind's future? Are we moving towards a brighter future, or is it something we are scared of because we find the future gloomy?

Honestly i don't think much about future and guess how it is.I have a plan and try to complete it only, i know today and try to make my day is happy...i don't want to spend much time for thinking of what i don't know exactly about it. As you said: The future is always an unknown entity so that we don't need to spend much time to guess it. Just work hard and enjoy our life today.

Great advice, ryanong. You are right that thinking about the future seems like a useless endeavor. The present moment should rule.

I can describe future by saying it's uncertain. Well, no one really knows what's in store for us in the future but one thing is for sure, they hope for a bright. Future may scared most of us because we don't know what's gonna happen but let's just foresee it with positive out look. :)

I would also agree that thinking positively about our future would only have good results. At least we are immediately rewarded with a positive attitude in the present and probably be in a state of good mood.

I don't think it's possible for people to see the future exactly as it will happen, but we can get an idea of what the future would be like. To see the future we must look at the past. If we see the things that have already happened and look at the direction they are going and where things are now, then we can get an idea of what the future might be like. And to change the future we just need to figure out our past and present mistakes and correct them.

Yes, I guess creating a good present is a key to having a better future. The present moment that is always made better becomes the bright future that we always dream of. I think when we think so much of the future, we lose track of the present moment which we should enjoy.

Nobody's can tell our future only God knows it. And even we are doing good today, working so hard for the future we can't still give an assurance that we can have a good future because there are some circumstances/happenings in our lives that we cannot avoid like accident or any problems that we don't expect.

Yes, so the future is really uncertain if that is the case. Anyway we can only pray for our own safety every second of each day.

With so much plans, and so much wants and so many other things we are not yet sure to come.. how are we able to see our future, let alone predict man kind's future in this world? I think with me i just see a simple life... with enough money to spend, with lots of travel and with lots of many other things to care for.. like see to it that my family will be doing well. I cannot really say what will happen to man kind and for all the other people - but i do have good wishes for them.. that we all get to live and say that our life was worth all the troubles, and that all the tears, and the heartaches are replaced with gladness, happiness, and life long peacefulness. =) With our future, i can only hope for the better.

I am not sure if one can predict future full, but it would be good to know the future. I think most probably fortunetellers are able to tell to some extend, but not to full extend. I think there are lots of people who tells future of a person and most people are interested to know the future.

Like a lot of people, I see the future as a mystery. I want to influence it as much as I can. I do things now to have a better future, but your life can change in a second. I just take things day by day. I really don't know what else to do in this crazy world. I look forward to the future, reminisce and learn from the past while living in the present. I think the future is in our hands. I find the future to be bright. I am doing all I kind to promote a better life ahead. Life is good now, but does it get better? Time will tell.

The future relies on how each people are taking actions. The probability of having a bright future is low because of the news we are seeing today, but we are hoping to fix these things in order to have a good future than we have here on the present time.

I can not tell what my future will be but I can choose what direction I will take for my future. For me, i see the future of mankind a great and more improvements in the quality of life. And yet there is always a dark side of that, there will be more wars and cyber crimes. But that is just my predictions.

How do I see the future: the future that could be, or my image of how I suspect the future will be?
