When making a decision, would it not be nice to see the whole picture, especially when that decision could alter the course of your life, history, save lives and the world?  

Some may even wish for a crystal ball to see into the future.  

The problem with seeing into the future is that it changes with each crossroad decision you make.

Once you cross the Rubicon, it changes into a different future world, a different fate.  

If only we can consult the mages with track records of wisdom and of careful consideration for humanity.

Or consult with the true prophets of the Lord with a track record of accuracy, integrity and will speak the truth no matter how bad or ugly in what we need to hear instead of what we want to hear.  

Sadly, we seem to have more snake oil salesmen and self-proclaimed geniuses more gifted at confidence tricks and gaslighting than actual wisdom and intelligence.  

Perhaps we should consult or give some consideration for what is certain in history, a track record of what has been and of what is likely to come.  

Probability algorithms, though not definite, can be surprisingly accurate when you know a person's track record, motivation and strength of personality and convictions.  

"A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer".         

                       - Ralph Waldo Emerson

The question is are we brave enough to brave the truth, to see things and people as they really are, not who or what we want them to be?
