Like last month at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now, I was talking with my one (taller) (newer) (Thai) coworker about how I had decided not to think about other jobs or the future so much, and she approved of that advice and said she doesn't think about the future so much, either, it's a good way to live, she stopped after her one last big relationship collapsed, and everything she thought she had changed.
I told her that our one (chubby) (Thai) coworker had given me that same advice, and I then said that there was something very (Buddhist) about it.
And, she just looked at me like, WHAT, and shook her head.
"But it's like not being attached to the future," I was like.
"No," she was like, "Buddhists like to know about the future," and she proceeded to tell me about how in (Thailand), (Buddhist) people consult about the future all the time at temples, including monks, because they want to know about it.
