I see where you are going. That wasn't what I was thinking, and that isn't how I experience the world. Not exactly. I find that the funnels go both ways- imagine an hour glass shape- at any given moment you are at the constriction in the center- as you move through time that shape moves with you. The expanding shape behind you is the "funneling" of your past choices, but I think the obverse funnel in front of you is as generous as the one to your back. We simply have different "choices" going forward. But they are still practically limitless, although we may not LIKE the limitless choices we have. I am not trying to address that. We could. My use of the word choices in no way limits my idea that the "choices" may not actually be choices. Not willing to give that up. I'm going to carry that idea around for a while. I just got my grades today in my reading class. :-) 197 out of a possible 200. My reading professor told me NOT to obsess over the missing 3 points. He knows me so well. I will miss him. He was a great teacher, IF a bit of a slave driver. I can miss him much better now that the class is over.
