It is in the Future

If you look at the star at night
Those photons of energy originating from that star
May have traveled millions of light years
To land on the retina in the back of your eyes
To register and give an electro-chemical signal
That tells you it is a star

Is it a coincidence?
That those particular photons
Landed on your eyes?

Knowing what is going to happen
Is not the same as
Predicting what is going to happen

Knowing what is going to happen
Implicates that it has already happened

Predicting what is going to happen
Implicates that it has not yet happened

So which is it?

Why is that important?
Because you cannot change what has already happened

No matter how much you try
You cannot change the past

Even though
It is in the future

Can you?
