My impression is most "folks" (to use one of Obamas favorite words) seem to think each of us is in control of our future.
Experience had led me to believe this is not true.
Tomorrow is up for grabs. No one knows what it will bring.
A union of faith,and the ability to admit our lack of precognition might be a good start.

A union of faith is a beginning and in it wh**ever comes is what was to be...

Worrying changes nothing, it is what it is...

Premonition, precognition etc means what in the reality of knowing we have but this moment to be where we are doing what we're doing...

I disagree, future outcome depends upon individuals.
We all have a shot at changing tomorrow.
God loves us all equally.

We say the same thing just slightly different..
You look to a future..I look at the reality of the future being this day and all it has to offer...Tomorrow never comes as it is always today...

We can look forward and plan, but the day is dictated by our action not our thought...Thought motivates, action succeeds...Or not depending on that course chosen..

Planning establishes the base security needed in sustaining our goals but it is the action to it that achieves it..

The only limitations we have are those we impose upon ourself or those forced on us by others if we allow them...

Thank You, solarkin so is what you share...

You are a kind soul with an astute understanding so many do not even think about. .

There is also much more to you than shared here...

You are without doubt a deep thinker in the realm of Metaphysics to a certain degree but intertwined with that which is your core value...
Unique!!!

I was a frequent visitor in the old AOL metaphysics chat room.
My faults are many, so are my hopes.
Isn't tomorrow the day we wait for?

The only problem with some of your thought process is that life happen but sometimes we help it along by our own stupid decisions and or actions.
