Day 3: Magic 8 ball

So day 3 brings about something controversial. I used to really center my whole life around horoscopes, fortune-telling and predictions and what not. Even a Magic-8 ball seems like a great ball in which to ask questions to.

 

It's so interesting to want to know what the future holds, is it not? So much so we focus our lives according to "what the fortune teller said...." and bla bla bla.

But have you ever stopped and thought about, if we all knew what each of us had in store for our future, where'd the spontaneity be? Would life be wonderful and happy? Carefree from disaster or back-up-contingency plans?

 

Even though I'm a Christian, I have to admit sometimes I have the temptation to want to know what will happen. Who doesn't? But where's the fun in life when you know everything about the future? After all, horoscopes aren't 100% true. Just a matter of chance for teaching suckers how to chose something. Likewise, the magic-8 ball is only a matter of probability. No?

 

So here stands Ansy, about to whack the magic-8 ball with her hammer, after she asked it what she should do for a Day 3 idea for a selfie... And it didn't exactly give her much of an answer... Hum...

But that's just my own view about all this... So keep those voodoo needles to yourselves...
