The Shape of Things To Come

Round...eh?

Well maybe square but whatever, the point is what does it matter?

I've always gone by 4 fundamentals rules in life:

1) I'm always right

2) Nobody ever listens to me

3) I know everybody

4) I know everything (which would go with I know everybody, but I like to be specific about these fundamental rules, after all they are fundamental)

Based on these 4 simple rules, I already know the shape of things to come. If I were to tell you, you wouldn't listen, even though I know everyone involved and everything involved in the future.

However, being that this is my so-called Journal, I might as well tell you anyways, even if it falls on deaf ears.

The shape of things to come, is an object of affection held in every heart that inhabits the planet. We as humans are always hypothesizing what's next. Creating, literally, figments of our imagination to supplant what we know not that the future holds.

This is where God comes in. God being the almighty director of the universe, explainer of all things, doer of all deeds. Humans created this mystical figure to control their lives, to set bounds, and make it easier to predict the future. By praying to God, or doing God's work, or being a 'person' of God, one is able to better tell whether the shape of things to come is good or bad.

I asked myself one question the other day. Why would God create all life in the Universe; what purpose, need, or want does this serve to the all knowing being? For that is why humans live - on purposes, needs, or wants. That is why God was created to serve each and every humans' purposes, needs, wants. God cannot transcend the very components that make God what God is. Some would say otherwise, though. Some would go blindly following a figment of their imagination in order to serve the very purpose, need, or want that they would deny God has.

It's and oddity, it is. The shape of things to come, rather, is pointless. Nostradamus, your local fortune teller, the Revelation, Bible codes... none of these are truths. Rather they are what we attempt to make them. Nostradamus was known to have pulled things whimsically out of his brain, your local fortune teller will tell you anything for 20 dollars, the Revelation was WRITTEN BUY A GUY IN A CAVE!!! OMGFU, and the same Bible Codes can be found in Harry Potter books.

Then there is always the thought...just what if somebody could really predict the future, what if all those people were right. Again, if they could predict the future, why can one only tell me so after the event has happened? < Because predictions of the future are what we make them to be... didn't I just say this?

The shape of things to come I asked, and I have answered. They do not lie within our holy books or fortune tellers. The shape of things to come lies in your own self, for it is how you shape the things to come that will tell you the shape of things to come. Thank you, thank you very much... :)
