Also on the note of my clairvoyance, today when I left the house in the morning I had the inexplicable idea to get my Sonic R CD so I could listen to "Can You Feel the Sunshine" in the car. I didn't know why and forgot about it leaving it at home, but now I realise that I must have predicted the lovely sunny weather to which it would have suited!
EDIT: Hm... I'm not really sure what to think of Taoism. I do see some truth in the concepts of the Tao and the De as often indeed things go best if you don't plan everything in the smallest detail before worrying about all outcomes and instead just follow the flow, take chances as they arise, and live as you feel like. On the other hand I feel that here it's driven to the extreme a bit, as the religion basically claims the true way to harmonise with one's De and thus the Tao would be to really do nothing but bare subsistence; farming, hunting, etc. I do see how this would cause the least sorrow on the world, but it would also mean that arts and culture would become worthless, which I just cannot bear to accept. Although it might be true. :/
