What does it mean when life is unpredictable?
The main mistake we all make in our life is predicting the outcomes of our life. In this way, we try to make our life in our control, however, the reverse of it is true. Life is very short and on the way, it is very unpredictable. It is the tendency of most people to predict the outcome of their and others' lives as they know what is going to happen in the future. The problem is that we don't even know exactly what is life? We all have our own assumptions about life and we believe them true. But in reality, there is so much about life that we don't know much about it. Human beings are just struggling with their egos and acquired knowledge to find the right path in life and do what is right.
Happiness is the main motive of people in life so they try to do things in life that can make them happy. The second need of people is to feel important and influential therefore, we do many things to show our richness, wisdom and power. In general, we all are influenced by many things and we try to achieve those things our whole life. We all want to dominate and influence others but others also want to do the same so we all are under the constant influence of many others. Due to these reasons, we lose the unpredictable aspect of life like it can change at any moment without any warning.
Is Unpredictable a good thing?
The true way to live a happy life is the acceptance that life is highly unpredictable and it can change at any time. We are always distracted by past and future worries, therefore, forget to stay focused on the present moment. We lose many present moments of life by not being present at that moment. Acceptance of oneself and being true to oneself is the key to happiness in life. We need to free ourselves from chains of egos and false wisdom. Freedom in life can only be achieved by learning to live in the present moment and be aware of all happening around us.
We put a lot of pressure on ourselves by trying to predict life; in this race, we always fail. Let's leave life as such as it is without foreseeing it.
