My joy is precisely NOT knowing what today or the future holds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Life is more fun when you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re gonna get.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Randomness, chaos, and uncertainty as more fun in life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even when making art: imprecision, uncertainty of what the final product will look like \u00e2\u20ac\u201d this is what makes art so fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, how calligraphy (Zen brush 2) creates random and unpredictable flows with the brush. The joy of the uncertainty of how your photos will render.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The joy of uncertainty in writing <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Writing is fun for me, because when I start off, I have no idea how my ideas or words will progress. This \u00e2\u20ac\u0153stream of consciousness\u00e2\u20ac\u009dstyle of writing is far more fun and enjoyable. Blogging to me is almost like \u00e2\u20ac\u0153mind streaming\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00e2\u20ac\u201d I share in \u00e2\u20ac\u0153real time\u00e2\u20ac\u009dwhat\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s on my mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The joy of uncertainty in Apple announcements <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What makes magic fun? We enjoy the uncertainty of what will happen next!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple announcements \u00e2\u20ac\u201d only fun when we get surprised with the magic of something totally revolutionary and new!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Same thing with movies. This is why we hate \u00e2\u20ac\u0153spoilers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00e2\u20ac\u201d we want to experience the film FRESH with new eyes. To know the ending often makes the experience much less enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why would you want to know what will happen in your future?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A fortune teller is someone who makes you less afraid of the future. The human desire for certainty in the future is a sign of weakness and fear<\/strong>. The strong rather desire uncertainty, chaos, and danger because this is what awakens their skills, gives them the chance to exercise their strength, and to employ their courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
