Fear of the Future

It has been a very long while since I last wrote my sentiments or my very random thoughts here. I am seeking for a reason but my head right now is very clouded with thoughts of what I want to do with my life.So where do I start writing (again)?

I have been so caught up with reading novels again and then this quote struck the depths of me:

"People often fear the future until they realize the future is now, and that they are living in it" (Seth King, The Summer Remains)

Do you feel me? The future gives me this unnecessary shiver when I think of it. All my life I have been planning on everything that I want and everything that I want to happen and then suddenly life throws me something that isn't even close to what I plan for. This is just one of the days when I ask myself, why plan for something when there is no assurance that it will really happen? Why bother setting up your whole life before you when there is a very small chance that it will happen? 

This really terrifies me, and right now I can still say that the future is terrifying (in so many ways).
