I understand. For me I wasn't very devout. I lead a good life though. My friends thought was you are a good person even though you have slipped away from him. He knows that. He put you here because that's where you were needed. There's these line of events that have stretched 48 years so when someone you might have never met otherwise would help you need? It kinda ballooned my head some. I understood a lot of its faith. God knew your whole life before you ever lived it? Was there ever free will for the both of us. The next thought was then He's pretty cruel

Since then I've searched for some meaning. Closest I came explaining it was soul contracts. It's means for example you have a Group which at some point are connected. That person you meet that seems like you met them before but havent. Its because they are in your group. So for example I said I'll help people and pick a few out of the group. I know of one other excluding my friend. I met randomly some woman in the course of business. Years later down the road meet again. Became acquainted and went about our way. Almost a decade later we meet again this time its a partnership. We agree to work together. We do but I saw some cracks. Former Addict. My response? I Try to help. She almost has it, but the drugs hold her back. I sadly had to move on. I lost track. I think if its God directing it He's saying you are my tool. I'm telling him next time I'm retired.

There is one of the huge glaring issues with god. How could there possibly be an all-knowing god while at the same time humans still possess free will? If some entity knew every single action we will ever take down to the tiniest of detail. If god knew 100,000 or 100 trillion years ago I would be typing this right now. Am I really deciding to? Or is he ya know...not all knowing. Or even there at all.

Even the idea of heaven doesn't appeal to me really. I'd like to be myself in "paradise". Not some drone stuck in a strange date rapey thing that it comes across as where we are so happy regardless of whats happened. Example, how could you possibly be in paradise if someone you love isn't and you died under some crazy circumstances that put huge stress on them? That doesn't make sense. Only idea I ever came up with is that everyone technically enters at the same time. We die and its like 1 second went by for the people who died years earlier. I dunno.

Yeah I've heard theories like yours. One I often wonder about is that we live multiple times and once you die you remember it all. Then for some reason we can't know while living a life we need to keep living other lives for some higher purpose. Makes no sense but at the same time makes more sense to me than the going theories.

Your idea would make sense to me. But only for one person I've known. I've only had people enter my life out of completely random chance for negative reasons. Times where it would've been so incredibly easy for It to have never happened at all. The only time it was for a positive reason was so I could mess it up. Only to realize that later. FFS. Now I am trying to find them. Strange world.
