I appreciate the same must be true for all of us - none of us know the future. I do think however, many of us live each day as if things are going to carry on along the same trajectory. I know I've blogged in a similar vein before. Maybe this is just how life is when you're on short term contracts? But I am currently feeling some insecurity about what the future might hold, as I just don't know how it is going to be. And so the Rolling Stones came to mind (I didn't know Buddy Holly had done it first, Me and my sister listened to a rolling stones album a lot when we were younger). Reflecting now, I find the line abusive. No-one has the right to tell anyone else how it will be.
It reminds me of the interesting audio book I'm listening to - Brene Brown is just describing how lots of us see "power" negatively, imagining it to be "power over" someone else, where such power is finite and about inequality. Real power however is infinite and if each of us were in our power, we would be aware that we can make things happen. It's a force on/through ourselves, not on others. Good stuff.
