Today's Fact: Life Goes On!
Yes, it's true. You might be under the impression that life will end pretty quickly, and while that is certainly a possibility (depending on where you are and what you are doing right now), the chances are immensely greater that you will wake up tomorrow, alive, yet again, and that this will keep happening for longer than you think. It's a good argument for paying attention to your future self.
Case in point: When I started this blog, over 10 years ago, I thought I would keep doing it. But, after 3 posts, I stopped.
Who could have guessed that I would write a new post today, of all days, 12 years later? Not me! I mean, I could have imagined the POSSIBILITY of me being alive, but possibilities don't act the same way in your mind as does the immediate present.
So the lesson is, plan for your future. Expect to be alive, and to need money. Don't assume the worst will happen, but realize that one day, THIS will be your present, and everything you worried about will be memories.
