Welcome to ATS!
As for your name, Timetraveller1, I find it quite appropriate since I believe this lifetime already has been finished in another dimension where the
beings are ahead of us in time. Schrodinger´s cat, the paradox from quantum mechanics tells us that the cat is dead and not even born yet at the same
time....
So spiritual matters like prophecy etc is perfectly matched with modern science, it is just that people don´t know about it - yet.. It is just like
the importance of our thoughts, I believe that our thoughts are one step ahead of our actions and hence whatever you think about matches your actions
quite well, so the best thing to do is to develop good thoughts about everything and have a short memory for whatever bad things others do.
As for me, I humbly admit that I have many shortcomings related to my selfishness, but I have decided to kill that ugly part of myself asap. I
practice Falun Dafa Qi Gong which is a free of charge Qi Gong from China which is based on Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance in daily life. I mean, it
is not enough to talk about being a good person, the hard part is to put it into action...
Anyway, the practice is both about cultivating your mind but also your body by doing slow exercises, including meditation. Anyone can try it at home,
it has an extremely powerful effect at once:

Since I was a very bad and unhealthy person five years ago(not to mention 15 years ago) I had very low expectations for my future, and then suddenly I
found this practice and got rid of all my allergies, colds, flus etc within half a year or so - most importantly I found joy of life again, I could
really improve myself step by step. Anyway, if you want to try some simple exercises you can go to this web site:

I believe any good person has a good future, my current limited understanding is that a normal human life is all about whether one can become a good
person or not. Not do bad things to others and being grateful for our human bodies and respect higher powers and their instructions to human beings
about moral standards.
Just a few thoughts from me, I have no truth to offer. I wish you all the best in the future.
/Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance is good, Falun Dafa is good
