@Kevin Michael Witzke Yeah free will had nothing to do with those things, those things were fated for me, free will for my parents.. to a certain extent. It's not fate vs free will for me though, it's both/and. The chess board is set, the rules are set, free-will choices are within those boundaries. The play is written, the scripts are given to the actors, but some actors get creative or improvisational freedom on set because they're skilled at their craft; I liken those to people who are aware of their astrology or engage in deeper awareness/consciousness/self-knowing pursuits. Mediocre actors or extra's get strict direction on set or are told to not deviate from the script, I liken those to people who have no astrological or deeper awareness.
