YOUR FORTUNES -- WOULD YOU WANT TO KNOW?

Would you want to know what the future holds for you - good or bad? . Years ago a colleague of mine made frequent trips overseas to visit her favorite fortune teller. I don't know what she was told or what advice she received during those visits - but I do know she prospered tremendously. Personally , I would prefer not to know what lies ahead for me. If unpleasant happenings are forecast and I am forewarned and could do something differently to avoid those things happening -- then maybe I would want to know. However, if nothing can be changed - then why would I want to spend every day being miserable while I wait. Have you ever visited a fortune teller - and would you?

@Kandae11 There must be a good reason why the Bible discourages us from going to fortunetellers and the like.

I had my fortune told, but I was at a party and dismissed it. No interest.

@DianneN , I think it is only fabricated by the fortune teller to have some few cents gain. from the client.

I wouldn't want to know. Bad things always happen sooner or later. You couldn't enjoy the good parts when you know bad times are coming.

No I haven't but my vibrations for myself is that more good things will come to my life and if ever problems will come I know they will not be that hard to handle. I feel positive about my future

Many years ago when I was back in NYC on a New Year's Eve my best friend and I went to a fortune teller. I was just told routine things and nothing much else. But the fortune teller spent some time with my friend also nothing bad but she got so scared when that fortune teller kept talking to her. Today I would not go to one.

I know that we can't go through life without facing obstacles - but some I would rather not know about.

I have not, but know many people that believe in that sort of thing. I agree that I would not want to know unless I could change the outcome.

Yes but these were people that did not charge money. All of it came true. I would go see them now but they both were old and have passed away.BUT.... I also find the unknown exciting.

No, I never have visited a fortune teller and I wouldn't. I wouldn't want to know my future, for the same reasons you gave, but another reason I wouldn't visit a fortune teller is that I don't believe in them, so it wouldn't do me much good.

When I was in my teens we had a neighbor who knew a bit about reading palms although she didn't do it for money. So she really wasn't a fortune teller but one day she asked to see my palm. When she saw it she said, "I hope you don't get a swelled head in the future." She would never tell me anything more than that. Well, I have never really done anything that would case me to have a "swelled head."
