2000 MILLENNIUM ESSAY CONTEST
The moment of the millennium
"The best way to prepare for the millennium is take full advantage of the present."
I'm convinced that intense planning is part of human nature. We like time and we like measurements. We like to judge and plan an expected outcome. I admit it I've always been a big fan of planning. I also admit that it's a highly overrated practice. I know this from past experience. I can scarcely see what's in front of me. let alone foresee the next year. This desire to predict the future has never been more evident than now, as we near the dawn of the new millennium. Honestly, it's nice that everyone is so excited, but I can't help wondering what the big deal is. Think about all the time, energy, and thought we've spent analyzing, predicting, and speculating on issues that aren't even issues yet!
