Paul,
What you actually mean by 'the future will take care of itself' is whatever happens in the future, you'll deal with it and accept it. Am I off track?
Going with the flow?

Hank,
Yeah that's what I meant. No use in worrying about something that hasn't happened yet. It just takes my focus away from the present moment which usually has great things in it, if I can just get calm and peaceful enough to see them instead of being fraught with worry and obsession about what "might" happen.
Of course we all need to plan and have goals, but I'm talking about being obsessive about the future.
