Sometimes I like to think that life is a big chain of events where each condition in each moment is explicitly linked to the moment before, and thus the moment after. Each future moment relies on the one that came before, one that is so definite and exact that there can only be another definite, exact moment that follows. Sort of like there was (is?) a function right at the beginning of time that set up all of moments to come.

And then sometimes I like to think I have a choice of what to think and how to act... but I'm not sure about that.
