What if we Could Predict our Future?

We all sometimes wonder about our future's: "What will become of us; What will become of our children; What will happen if i'l make this decision? - If i'l take this path instead of other or change the highway i was on?" Sometimes we even seek guidance from fortune-tellers; maybe when we have found a new love in our lives or something else.
We just struggle so hard to find meaningful answers; to know if we made the right decision; we want to know, if it'll lead us into something good, -maybe bad, happiness or grief...

Save the Environment - What If?

Jimmy Buffet, Mother Earth News, March-April 1990
Our children may save us if they are taught to care properly for the planet; but if not, it may be back to the Ice Age or the caves from where we first emerged. Then we'll have to view the universe above from a cold, dark place. No more jet skis, nuclear weapons, plastic crap, broken pay phones, drugs, cars, waffle irons, or television. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad idea.
