The future contains potential. Potential is like dark matter: it is said to be present everywhere, yet is nigh-impossible to observe and even harder to interact with. I think, maybe . . . potential is a great limiting force. Perceiving the world as a hodgepodge of the potential things that you can do or become severely limits me. I have no idea how to use my potential, so my first desire is to conserve potential, to keep all options open. This leads to a path where I do very little, as any large action destroys the potential to later do other things. I'm hamstrung. Strange ideas have overtaken my mind concerning what to do with the future. It's not the plan I had in mind, but I really didn't have a plan.
