The difference between a open unlimited possibilities of future and a limited shrunken future is ....
our planning of future ..
our fears of uncertainties..
our relentless need for certainty and security...
By planning we limit our future and shrunk it and by following our plan to the end we confirm the limitedness of our future...
when we dont plan we keep our future open for unlimited possibilities ..
The contrast is also true that when we plan and commit then only we can get anything we desire but then that anything you get is at cost of every other possibility which could be better / bigger or smaller/worse than that thing which you settle for...
Now the whole confusion of human being is to keep the future open for infinite possibilities and face the uncertainty or to limit by choosing one future and commit to it ..
Also the infinite possibilities blur vision of most of us to the extent that we are unable to decide what future we want out of the infinite possibilities...
Even if we choose one future and plan to achieve it then too after achieving it ...the infinite possibilities haunt us and we again move to another goal...something in us finds dead end of everything soon and frustrates us to find new thing and this cycle repeats ...
The cycle and frustration stops only when we realize that we cant get all of it and in exploring each moment and accepting the outcome gives us unlimited joy and variety to our experiences and freedom from boredom but only if we deal with anxieties and uncertainties which come along this path...
