Are We Puppets Been Manipulated By The Stars?
This is an age-old question that has not been truly answered by sages
The sages include mystics, astrologers, spiritualists, metaphysicians
Soothsayers, clairvoyants, fortune-tellers, seers, and psychics
To rephrase the above question in simplistic terms –
Is everything human beings do on earth predestined by the stars?
Human beings are known to possess enormous powers
Powers to think, reason, decide, invent, create, and make choices
How can we be turned into puppets been manipulated by the stars?
Many sages say some events in the life of humans are predestined
And that not all things in human existence are preordained
The power of human beings to make choices in their own lives
Has lead several to fortune and some to misfortune
If you play the lottery and become an overnight millionaire
You will surely thank all the stars in the sky
If your marriage end up in divorce after few months or years
Will you blame that on all the stars in the sky?
Or blame yourself for your poor choice and short-sightedness
Are we puppets been manipulated by the stars?
How about a drunk driver who died in motor accident?
Was that driver manipulated by the stars?
How about a swimmer who drowned without a life-jacket?
Was the swimmer manipulated by the stars?
Are we puppets been manipulated by the stars?
If you eat the wrong type of food and die of heart-disease!
Shall we blame the stars in the sky for your untimely death?
What of a student who failed an exam because of poor preparation?
Shall we conclude that the student was manipulated by the stars?
Are we puppets been manipulated by the stars?
With all the enormous powers of human beings to think,
Reason, decide, invent, produce, create and make decisions
Hopefully, we shall all become the architects of our own fortunes
Please enjoy your life, good luck and happy destiny
