People talk about the future like it is a book that can be read by special people. Like it is a new play, just waiting for the actors to start their parts. Just one big story with one sure ending. I think differently. The future is not something you can read out of someones palm. It is forever changing with the choices we make. The things we say and the things we do. The future is like a huge maze, filled with endless dark and deadly tunnels and dead ends, where you have to fight for your life or turn and run back to safety. And when you reach the end of the maze, There is only one end to your story. There has ever only been one fate; waiting around every corner, behind every trap, every weapon. There is only one fate.
