I think I finally understood why we weren't meant to know what happens in the future. About a month ago, I visited a psychic with a few of my friends. Now, it's not that I highly believe in those things, but I just wanted to experience it. I know a few people who've had their readings done and said it was very accurate. I just wanted to see for myself.
So, I went over to Tara's (that's the name of the psychic), chose a deck of cards and started asking my questions. She covered everything from career to family to even my love life. She said her predictions, but also mentioned some events that have happened to me in the past. It was pretty scary when she got things correctly, but I tried very hard not to make any sudden movements or facial expressions. I didn't want her cold reading my expressions to her advantage.
After having your future read to you, you can only react two ways: Fight or Flight. Either you anticipate the situation and subconsciously make decisions that eventually lead to that thing happening, or you try to avoid the situation altogether, making sure that it doesn't happen.
And here's where it gets tricky.. None of her predictions for me have come true (yet). And I'm not sure whether or not it's because she's not really a psychic or because I've chosen flight every single time. I feel like there could have been instances when she was right, but just to prove otherwise, I did the exact opposite. Maybe it was my Catholic ways, or maybe I'm just scared everything she said would come true if I let at least one of her predictions happen, but I just felt like I had to change things.
So the true question remains, did she correctly read my future? The fact that none of them have come true could be because of my own doing. I have probably altered my own future by knowing it. I guess I'll never really know, but one thing's for sure, I'd rather take the future one day at a time.
Edit: One has come true because I made the first move towards it.
