Destination

Down that lane lies your destiny, boy.

Well, humpty ho. What a great word to ponder for five minutes. Destination, those construed letters on a board hinting at future advendture. The force that some people thinks rules what will happen in the future.

As cosmology in its most convincing form can thoughtfully relay is that time can fly both ways. There is a sort of symmetry in all relations bringing out constants or dimensions playing in quantum flux to form something which is unerringly surprising.

What if your destination is pre-determined in your destiny? The very notion of the question is somewhat doubtful, but recognisable. One can possibly argue that due to an action or choice one made at an undisclosed place in time and space, the probable outcome of the next action or choice is to some extent known a priori. If one should choose an irrational action, it is only irrational in the extent that one believes the outcome to be negative.

Every event is a satisfactory event. God does not play dice, or nature holds no grudge, or there is not any scale to weigh dark matter. What goes around comes around so to speak. There is always however a chance, no matter how low the odds, a chance that the outcome will be entirely beneficial for the subject. Postmodernistic games theory or even Stephen Hawking has bluntly put forth that there is a bigger chance that something CAN happen than that it will never happen. I know I am Norwegian, even though there are more Chinese. Any actions of my ancestry might have made it so, conscious or not. Can they be blamed? Of course not. They had no way of knowing. I'm just saying that life inevitably became for me what it is.

If you in your lifetime have had the vague noting that you perhaps might have done something dumb, well be happy with it. The question is moot. Eaten is eaten. Reality might have become sidestepped or difficult to handle, but as you are a part of reality it cannot be ignored, though subtly manipulated. It takes no offence, people do.

Then, turning the circle around, what you do next might even change the reality of that earlier point in time and space. It is the whole point but nothing but the point. Time is not something hanging around out there with a conscious determination. We each live time. That is entirely different.
