14 A Life Philosophy of Accepting the Past: Galton Board
The thing on the left in the figure below is called Galton Board, the bell-shaped curve below is called Normal Distribution
But today not discussing probability, I want to talk about a self-consistent life philosophy
In Galton Board, a small ball falls from the top, where it lands at the moment is jointly determined by all choices on the path
Life is the same, current circumstances are determined by countless choices on the path
The current "me" is the sum of all past experiences, every tiny choice guided me here, so if now is still okay, then I'm not willing to change anything about the past, accept it all
The most interesting part of life is inability to predict the future, so full of uncertainty
