By checking all twitters ( including mine) I do believe we mainly run our lives on Teleological time. Most people start their days knowing how they will look like, for example, I know that every Tuesday I have to go to work, school and then go home, there are not surprises on this day unless something chaotic happens which can change half or my whole schedule. Personally, I think we all need some chaotic time in our lives in order to have a balance on it. Imaging living a perfect life where everything goes as planned and nothing disturbs our schedule? It will be so boring!! People would turn into robots doing the same thing over and over; people would not know how to confront problems and little troubles can turn into something big.
As for the Garden of Forking Paths Hypertext, it is trying to convey that there is not true beginning or end in a story and that life is a circle where one action leads to another one. I agree with this concept because most people are always looking to accomplish more and more in life, for example, having a better car, education or house. Therefore, what we may think would make us happy and settle down suddenly can become the beginning of a new story; like when people finish their college education (Bachelor Degree) most people are already thinking about going for a master or some especial degrees. This is how life is a circle where the finish of a chapter is the beginning of a new one. In addition, the word that caught my attention the most was "Future." This word makes me realize how our lives revolve around our future. How our future controls our present and how we forget about enjoying the present because we are always thinking about a better tomorrow.
