eye in the sky

let me just begin by saying that i am very much an internal locus of control kind of guy. by that i mean that i have always believed that we are all ultimately responsible for our own futures. fate or destiny play little or no part in my world order. that said, i also very much believe that there is something or someone out there keeping an eye on proceedings here on earth. call it faith or spirituality or g-d or a higher power or whatever. but i am certainly of the opinion that we are not alone on this giant blue rock as we all speed our way to the celestial finish line. and events like those of today only serve to reinforce my belief system. without going into details, let's just say that there is absolutely no way that today's matters could have unfolded merely as a result of sheer coincidence or sublime serendipity. a simple request was made - involving a fair offer and not a greedy appeal - and a response was almost immediately forthcoming. thereafter, as if to ensure that the message was received, a second signal was delivered that, once again, defies the odds of mere happenstance. again, without going into details, this was no simple stroke of luck. scoff if you wish, but you weren't there to feel what i felt.

  2. Contradicting yourself again, I see.

    At the beginning you say, "...i have always believed that we are all ultimately responsible for our own futures. fate or destiny play little or no part in my world order."

    then later you say, "...that there is absolutely no way that today's matters could have unfolded merely as a result of sheer coincidence or sublime serendipity."

    On one hand, you're saying that you don't believe in fate at all, but on the other, you say that there is no way that things could have been like the way they are now FOR NO REASON.

    isn't that what we call fate?
    Besides, how can you believe in "God" and not believe in fate?

    "no simple stroke of luck"

    everything you say references back to "fate".
