Confused

What determines who I am? In so many ways I feel that God predetermines who and what I am. That's what the bible says. Marx says my society is to blame. Then I feel like my surroundings play a huge part but I think about my situtation and have to wonder. I'm not like some people who grew up in my neighborhood. Why am I different? Why did my life turn out different? So confused.

Great question!
If you can kinda "see it" both ways (with God the architect and society the architect), maybe you, the seer, are the architect behind it all. Hm. Could that be, if God made you or if society made you?
What is constant? the only constant I can see is you, the observer.
But you, you say, are different from those around you who had the same environment. Are you more willful?
