Life comes to a standstill when you do not have any certainty about the future. Do we feel more comfortable knowing what's going to happen tomorrow? Or will life be more exciting if we lived it just for today and not bother about tomorrow? Plans. I think we can live life on the edge and not be bothered about what will happen tomorrow, but we cannot do without making plans. You can't just decide to spend every single cent today in the name of "living for the day" and not care nor plan about what you will need for tomorrow, can you? The uncertainty lies in the unexpected twist of things happening. It doesn't lie in not making any plans on purpose.
