The Certainty Of Uncertainty

In life we certainly wish that everything happens the way we want it to be.  But we do know that it is simply not that way. 

While there are certain happenings that may appear to be pre-determined, like a stage scene, others are more than scenes that we certainly do not wish to come on.   But like it or not, it is when we least wanted something to occur that way, it simply does so, and may be more frequently too.

So now that begs a question.   Is there such a phenomenon that's certain to happen, at the predetermined time and place? 

We often hear of this phrase:  "change is constant."   Just because this is so does not preclude the scenario that it will not change when the time is ripe.   All of these can be taken to mean that mathematics and science do not have an absolute answer for all things in this world.   Having said that, why is it that there are lots of people believing in geomancy, or prophecy? Is it due to the fear of the unknown? May be!
