What lies around the corner?

by The Philosophical Fish

What lies around the corner?

Wouldn’t it be terrible if we always knew?

Life would be boring and predictable.

Sometimes a bit of predictability is nice, but all the time?

That would be horrible.

Nothing would ever be a surprise.

We would spend our time dreading things that we couldn’t control.

Much better to enjoy the curves that life presents us with and grow from them.

Much better to know that life doesn’t just throw nasty curves at us all the time, but that some of those corners hide wonderful experiences, new friends, unexpected pleasures, chance encounters with existing friends.

Yes, I like blind corners, most of the time….

Another corner? (Reminds me of a kids’ song "the bear went over the mountain, the bear went over the mountain,the bear went over the mountain, And what do you think he saw? …. He saw another mountain, he saw another mountain, he saw another mountain, And what do you think he did?")

I really like the lines here!
