carpe diem

there comes a point in life when you ask yourself "what happens next?"
when you've put one foot in front of the other, you always want to know what's coming your way. well stop it!
i've made a resolution this year that i'm not going to ask "what happens next?" i'm just gonna do.
what is the point of asking "what happens next?" when the outcome may be bad and when you hear it you wish that you didn't want to hear it in the first place? what happens when the next thing that happens becomes the best thing in your life and when you again ask the same question you're disappointed by the result?
don't ask "what happens next?" because it's unexpected. it's for no one to know and for you to find out. if you know what happens next then you won't ever be surprised by the outcome. isn't part of life to be surprised by the outcome? shouldn't you live life not knowing. if you lived life knowing, then it wouldn't be life.
so don't ask "what happens next?" just do. like it's written in latin.
carpe diem.
