We can only examine events in the past which never prove the future. The future has too many past experiences to know
what the future holds. However, if we predict the future, there is a small chance that our
prediction will be 100% correct. So instead of hoping that the past will predict the future, we will simply use
the present to predict the future.
I used to predict the future back in 1987 but it never
turned out because I didn't know the future. Knowing what I know now from the past, I can predict the future a bit better. Only
time will tell if my
prediction is correct. The past is never perfect but the future has a chance to be perfect!
