Knowing what’s going to happen,
Knowing what you’re going to do about it,
Knowing how other people will react,
Knowing when the right time is,
Knowing who you’re going to affect,
Knowing where you’re going in life,
Knowing why you’re here;
Knowing what your purpose is,
Knowing that your purpose can change,
Knowing that you can’t take it back,
That is certainty.

But certainty is merely a
Theoretical thing,
Because nothing in this would can be certain.

So true and so....I can identify with this, you know? Good job. To the point. Meaningful. It conveys futility but a measure of control. I like it.
