"Do You Think It'll Happen ?"

Life is a mystery, and it pays to keep it that way. How would you feel if you knew what was going to happen next. You might jump to a conclusion and say that it'd be splendid to know your future, so you could keep yourself away from all the dangers that lie ahead and steer yourself toward all the treasures that are spotted throughout the road to the end. But lo ! Is a treasure really a treasure if there has not been any anticipation in the quest to find it? It's just a chanced upon piece of fortune then, a relic that would only remind you how lucky you were in that moment and fool you into believing that that is the way you experience joy. I say different. I say we wait and find out what awaits us. I say we anticipate, we salivate, we starve, we ponder, we worry, we think and not know. I say we let the future decide on the course it wants to take, and see whether the course of our present meets with it or not. I say we enjoy every moment spent in this wait believing that the next will bring us a surprise - if it doesn't, there are many more to come. I say we wait till the last moment of our lives, so that even death takes us by bewilderment, so much so that it takes our breath away...
