As a late teenager, I recall discovering that it is a special song that needs to be played very loud in the dark. Driving at night is good, too. You know those ones? That is what is was to me. I owned the album in cassette form. So few songs have I repurchased on itunes just to have it in today&#8217;s world. I did purchase this one. BUT its production quality was not that good. It really stood out on my playlist. I would have to adjust the volume so much higher than the rest of the tunes and could not relive the effect I remember. I removed it from my lists. Disappointment. Maybe it is me who changed? Who knows?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">One fine day in March 2014, I attended the movie Son of God in Calgary which prompted my &#8216;blasphemous&#8217; story Lost In Translation. Following the movie, I heard a cover of \u201cIn The Air\u201d while in the theatre lobby. Shazam!! (the name of the iphone app. that I used to learn the origin of the song that stopped me in my tracks). <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/T5qc3qZqe38?t=21s\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Feel It (In The Air Tonight) by Naturally 7<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">It Blows the Original. Out. Of. The Water. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">It uses the original song as a springboard. Not really a cover but could not exist without the original inspiration. Isn&#8217;t it so cool when &#8216;co-creations&#8217; like this happen? Every artist gathers their inspirations from the world and puts their own spin on it. I kind of think of my own stories this way. I cannot do it without someone else&#8217;s creative expression to act as my springboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I had brunch with a treasured friend this past week. (She is my co-creator for this story). She described my writing style as \u201cAbstract Art\u201d. My writing is to the writing world what abstract art is to the art world. Hey, I am liking the sound of that. She went on to say that when she attends a big Art Gallery, she will always see the Traditional Art first but never misses perusing the Abstract Art display also. She may find it harder to approach, but usually will find one or two that really speak to her. She sees it as \u201copening her mind\u201d. Soooo interesting&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I took no offense. I have often wondered why anyone would want to read my stories. My friend gave me a solid reason that makes sense to me. Very uplifting. A true friend is so transparent and authentic, how could it possibly offend? Right? I saw the truth in her statements. It comforts me as I prepare for the nearly 100% possibility that many will not &#8216;jive&#8217; with my stories. Totally fine. I can only be mySelf. I tried being someone else&#8230;and it did not work out that well. I wrote a lot of stories about that too. BUT it was all perfect&#8230;for my Evolution. Alleluia!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">That brings me to the concept of Freewill versus Predetermination. Sounds kind of heavy, I guess. It was so funny because my friend and I had our brunch at what she calls \u201ca hole in the wall\u201d in downtown Edmonton. It is as understated as a restaurant can get. It reminded me of diners where I have eaten in rural Alberta and Saskatchewan. No Interior Design touches. No color. Maybe 10 tables of four and a counter with 10 or more backless round stools permanently fixed to the floor. You pay, cash only, at the front counter that seconds as a glass display for chocolate bars. Fond memories rise up for me. She is tickled (but not surprised) that I share her nostalgia for a place like this. She has taken others who have not embraced the experience. I have probably driven by it a hundred times but did not take notice&#8230;until now. We enjoyed a decent eggs breakfast with weak coffee pouring freely. It is truly all about the \u201cvisit\u201d and discussion. So as we are being seated and menus set down, I cannot hold back the beginning of the discussion and say \u201cFreewill versus Predetermination\u201d. The waitress is taken aback&#8230;ha ha ha ha and states, \u201cWow, heavy\u201d but smiles. OK, I am busted. We laugh. For a millisecond I am embarrassed. Carry on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I resonate so strongly with messages from a teacher named, Matt Kahn. He lives in Seattle, Washington, not too far away, in the United States. One of my Facebook friends had shared a You Tube video of one of his talks. I happened to watch it on Christmas Day 2013. My kids were with their Dad. I was enjoying some solitary entertainment. I do not celebrate Christmas so it is more just a day for me. However, I delight that I received knowledge of Matt Kahn as a &#8216;Christmas Gift&#8217;. Sometimes the best gifts are free, I often say. I see him as a man who has clarity in his purpose and is sharing his gifts. I have gone on to purchase attendance at a retreat he gave in Portland, Oregan and weekly talk series he gives. It was his talk on Freewill versus Predetermination that had me all excited. I feel I have played with the question since I was 12 years old. My longest standing childhood friend and I were giving our PhD dissertations in Psychology to each other back in Junior High. It continues to this day&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I have waffled back and forth. I have never been able to feel good about landing on one or the other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Well, leave it to Matt to declare \u201cIt is both\u201d. They are \u201cSoulMates\u201d. Yes!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">(<i>I&#8217;ve been waiting for this moment for all my Life.) <\/i><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Why didn&#8217;t I think of that? <\/span><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Feels like I have been in a 30 year rut. My thinking process was not loose enough to come up with this myself. As I had thought about the question a LOT, <\/span><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">I recognized it as truth <\/span><span style=\"font-style: normal;\"><b>for me <\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">but could not come up with it on my own. It is what it is. <\/span><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">We can only do our best and be ourSelves.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">He has a simple analogy to attempt to describe it. To connect to the analogy, perhaps you have had to review the topic of Quantum Physics and spent some time contemplating these things, not sure. Maybe you have a trusted friend with deep knowledge in Physics. I once heard a great joke that I am adapting for this context. If you have not read a lot of books on Quantum Physics, sleep with someone who has. Ha ha. (Energetic transfer??) Do not worry about the details. Implied is a belief in the idea of simultaneous timelines coexisting right now. Holographic alternate versions of yourself. If that is stretching a bit far, no worries. For me, it feels like <b>a missing puzzle <\/b><b>piece has been identified<\/b>. <i>(I&#8217;ve been waiting for this moment for all my Life. Tee hee)<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">His analogy is of You (pretend now) getting into the habit of buying a lottery ticket daily. One momentous day three years into this habit, you win big \u2013 millions of dollars. The concept of you winning the lottery was &#8216;predetermined&#8217;. You freely chose to buy the ticket every day for three years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">In an alternate timeline, You never develop the habit of buying a lottery ticket BUT one fine day (matching the momentous day in the other timeline) you are so inspired\/urged to buy a lottery ticket and you win big \u2013 millions of dollars. Same predetermined event occurs. Different choice was made regarding the purchase of lottery tickets. That is how Predetermination can coexist with Freewill choices. The two life experiences are <b>different<\/b> but share a big event. Which of the two options might <b>feel<\/b> better to live out? It is your choice. IF you choose to believe in this concept I share, it is very peaceful. You know that what is destined for you will come to you either way&#8230;.so you may as well <b>choose<\/b> what <b>feels <\/b>best in each moment. Our emotions are our compass. Our \u201cheart\u201d is our compass. I have fired my mind as the CEO of my Life a few years ago. I see the mind now as a handy tool to refer to. I check in with my <b>feelings<\/b> first. The mind and heart are also Soulmates. Collective consciousness (developed Western world), in my perception has placed the Mind as the CEO. The heart is often cast aside for countless <b>reasons.<\/b> (Ego\/mind is an imaginary reason factory, read on.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Moral of the Story: (OK, let me see if I can do this.
