I used to think as many of you do, was a strong believer and proponent or "free will" or having my own will and other people having theirs, ect... Till I learned that was false... Rather brutally too, and I hope many of you don't have to find out or learn it that way...
"Do you believe in "fate" Neo...?" "No"... "Why not"...? "I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my life..." "I know exactly what you mean"...
And in the end, he learned he was not, even though being "The One" didn't matter, they were all of them, all bound up in it, just as we are... And him even more especially so, being "The One"...
I didn't like the idea that I was not in control of my life, or destiny or fate, or whatever, but just because I didn't like the idea, didn't make the idea false or not true, cause it is true, ect, and I'm not and we are not, ect... I also didn't like the idea that people may not be 100% totally responsible for (supposedly) their own actions or decision making (supposedly), ect, also... Couldn't reconcile it with my own ideas or what I thought I knew or what I thought must be true at the time, or at that, or those times, ect... But that did not make it "not true", cause, later on, I found out it was true, and not false, and I was "wrong"...
I found out in my own life, by God's personally showing me, through a lot of things I hope you people don't have to go through to find out...
That most of (supposedly) "my own" decisions, choices, ect, were not actually "my own" a great deal of the time, if not most, and if not all of the time, ect, all along, ect...
Anyway, I hope the rest of you "rebels" don't have to find this out the way I did, or had to...
God Bless!
