Lately I have been thinking about all the people who live on the Earth. Every one living a different life, whether it be the life of an adult living in solitude, or the life of a baby who was recently brought into a big family. But, I always wondered, why were they born as them? Or to be more clear, why was I born as an Ortiz, but not an Ortega? Or a Wilkinson?
Why was I born in 1999, and not 1899? Why was I born in the United States, and not Spain, or India? Don't get me wrong I wouldn't trade my life for anything, but, I'm really curious as to how we came to be. Are our lives given to us at random, or is it controlled by something we can't see or know?
