Hello funnyguy
I like your thoughts / realizations on the subject of destiny.
I find the question of "How is it that we create a kind of pre-destiny for ourselves in order to fill its shoes...?" to be quite an interesting one. If one takes it to the extreme - we create our own death too. But that one is a bit hard to swallow, so let's keep it lighter .
Even more intriguing is that we create our own experiences by our own involvement in certain systems. Many have mentioned how they entered lucid awareness after reading DJ's suggestion that CC look for his own hands in dreaming. This is the case with certain states of awareness too, we hear/read about them and then we strive towards them. It is why places like this discussion forum can offer a lot to a seeker. I entered a few dreams and experiences that picked my interested while reading or hearing reports from other seekers .
It is pretty interesting that you had the experience you describe as a child. I wonder how my life would be if I had been led to believe that whatever is written will happen no matter what. I cannot imagine how this worked in your childhood. Who wrote the stuff that is going to happen for you? Or was it just the Bible? Cause the Bible does not have much to say about your life - I'd assume (who you become, what job you get, what people you meet, etc.)
What about writing about the past what does that do?
Or fairy tales?
How is God guilty for our actions? I do not get how this one could be argued in the sense that I understand that you write God has pre-written our lives, but then where is the free will?

I also do not believe that "what does not kill us makes us stronger" - that is quite some BS. Though it can be used for comic relief .

The little person adopts the view of the world from its caretakers because this allows them to interact in/with it. And it provides a certain type of safety that is, I'd assume, pretty important to the little people. The sad part is that little people forget who they have been before they moved into this world of the big people. Later, we need to fight to distance ourselves from this worldview that we got so immersed in we forgot we were ever not in it. For me one of the more interesting realizations of what a sorcerer is after was not to cheat death (that for me weirdly enough was just a big disappointment when I read it in CC because I it reduced sorcerers into just another bunch of egoists who want their ego to live forever ) but to see the construct of reality that we were born into and understand it is just one of many available constructs - just like the world of a sorcerer is just another construct - and then to move beyond or between there constructs towards a very elusive freedom .
funnyguy wrote:Everything is a choice and raising awareness is the only way to realize that to see that we are the only ones accountable for our actions and how our lives turn out we do not have to follow anybodys whistle for any reason whatsoever. Indeed. Though sometimes we do that for reasons of our own - so in effect we pick our own prisons - hence it is still our choice even if we might not see it.
funnyguy wrote:I saw that nobody but me is guilty for how my life is happening Yay for you. This is an empowering but sometimes also a very hard realization. It is also hard to swallow if a lot of bad stuff happened to you as a little kid or even as a baby, because it is hard to blame an innocent for bad stuff. And here I might make some allowances maybe. If you are a baby and born into a bad family that abuses you - I am not sure how much guilt the baby carries. But other than that, after a certain age, I am all for this premise that you mention. But, it is quite amazing at how little an age our 'ego' comes into play. And then the little being starts to react in bent ways even though I do not think it has the option to decide it in a rational normal manner yet.

Wish you good speed on your raising awareness choice . I hope to read more of your realizations around here
