Why would the fact that they are pre-determined not make them your own though?

i tend not to give presents for Christmas and birthdays to my kids (they already get too much "anything they want" throughout the year). but have been coaxed into putting something (even symbolic says my 12-year-old) under the tree this year. For tradition reasons she says.
I can't for the life of God enjoy receiving presents. and almost dread them.

I like that.
I also follow the "karma" theory. e. g. daughter talks a lot about stranger things, I see a stranger things christmas jumper, I buy it as a gift for her.
girlfriend talks about getting into a shop to buy a new phone for her son. I have a spare new one that I bought online and it's 2x as good and half as expensive as the one she'd get in the shop - off it goes to her son. etcetc

This is interesting and resonates loud with what I've learnt to perceive. But if it's to be unexpected then it shouldn't be given for a special reason, as it would be expected.
But perhaps I've misunderstood what you mean by special reason.

but then how can they be 10x as many cells and only weight 1-3‰? our own cells much bigger /heavier? edit:thinking about it, it's probably due to non-cell weight like water, minerals etc?

I mean, more than feeling - why do they not weight on the scale when I get a measurement

actually I have kids and a job etc. and I wouldn't give a shit anyway. I do what I can, whatever happen I'll be fine.
and we all die alone anyway, even if we have a lot of people around.

but did you do everything you can to improve. I. e. gym?
