What is it that makes all you want to not know the future?
Is it the feeling about the inevitable, the feeling of being insignificant? Powerless to do anything else but a set pattern?

For me Joonas it's not a fear, it's liking the way life is currently set-up. Making decisions based on the best evidance or accumulated experience and knowledge; it is "normally" very appealing. The other path takes the wind out of my sails. For living the other I think;...I might as well be on a conveyor-belt.

1) Most likely, yes. It would help me a lot, either by just helping me plan or by preventing it.
2) YES.
3) That depends. If I myself may choose what to know about the future, then yes. As if I can filter what to know, for example I can find out what stocks that will increases and fall in the future, but I choose not to know about things like happy surprises.
Buuuuuuuut....
In reality I wouldn't want to know, however I wouldn't be able to stop myself from finding out. Thank god we can't choose these things in real life, huh!
