Abstract
The matrix of maybe can be defined as a way of conceptualizing the future, either imminent or distant, as a set of options, only some of which will come true.

For example, people may choose a job or a spouse from among several options, but making the decision brings a new set of possibilities (maybes). The selected job or spouse could in turn lead in various different directions.
