What about myself in two hours?
As a thought experiment for today, I think I will try imagining myself two hours from now.
I just came up with this idea today, so this might be the first time in my life I have thought about where I will be in two hours.
Don't you think this two-hour timeframe is quite exquisite, feeling like something you could predict, yet also not?
✅ A certain degree of prediction
That said, I think I can make a reasonable prediction for two hours from now.
Assuming no unforeseen circumstances occur, I believe two hours from now will arrive just as predicted.
However, in my many years of experience, with two hours, there is a fairly high chance that some kind of interference? will occur.
Especially with children.
I have memories of surprising things happening due to the unpredictability of children's schedules.
I couldn't have imagined things like going to pick them up from daycare when they were perfectly fine, only for them to suddenly develop a fever, and two hours later, finding myself leaving the pediatrician's office and having to pick up medicine at the pharmacy.
In that sense, I suppose our days are made up of a mix of days that go as planned and days that don't.
✅ There are many paths
I suddenly remembered that when I was a stay-at-home dad doing solo parenting, I was always thinking about two hours ahead and preparing accordingly.
After doing that for years, you become able to envision various patterns of the future.
Among those patterns, I would select the ones most likely to happen and do some preparation at that point.
I did a lot of preparation because I knew that if I didn't, I wouldn't be able to manage the time spent raising children—where you never know which path you'll take—and I would end up feeling even more down.
But as a byproduct of doing that, I feel I acquired the flexibility to change paths however I like based on my mood.
Even if the future doesn't go as planned, I have become a person who can enjoy it for what it is.
✅ Summary
The old me would envision the distant future, but I never thought about my near future, my self two hours from now.
However, through the experience of raising children and gaining work experience, I have become able to handle things well by making decisions while predicting the near future.
