Do the gods work in mysterious ways? Let's find out. Our myths and fairy tales and traditions tell us a lot of things. And one of the things they tell us is that we have a fate. Something that has been predetermined before our birth.^[1] This doesn't mean that we have no free will. There are no contradictions here. It just means that something has been made before we are born. You could see it this way. A building, any building has a function. The purpose of a building is predetermined. You build a garage, you build a barn, you build a house. The building material though, used to build a barn, a house, a stable or whatever, is the same. What matters is the constructor, how he uses those materials.^[2] The constructors are what we call the gods, or mainly here, Odin. The constructor will not always use all the building materials he has available.^[3] So the same is the case with us human beings. And the building material, that would be the DNA, is not all used when we are created. Some of it is used, some of it isn't. And yes, the gods determine what material is to be used and what is not to be used. And again, I mean Odin. The gods determine how I shall be, based on how my parents lived. So even though I may have DNA in a very wide range, only some of it is actually used, or activated by the gods, by Odin, when I am created in the womb of the mother.^[4] The gods will look at the life of my father mainly, but also a bit on the mother's life, and determine what is useful for me when I am created. If my father's life required a lot of thinking, a lot of intelligence, then Odin will pick the best DNA for that. Or rather, it will activate the DNA that will give me the most intelligence. What this means is that it doesn't really matter if you have very good DNA from your parents. If they have DNA for high intelligence, and they spend most of their time using a GPS, using a calculator, pumping iron instead, then Odin see no reason to activate the genes for high intelligence, because they are not needed in the lives that your parents led, and that therefore probably his children will lead. It's all about resource management, you see. If you live a life where no brains are required, then there's no reason to give you brains, to give your children brains. Odin adapts your children to your environment, to your challenges, to your life, because they are likely to live just like you did. This is the predetermination of your life. This is your fate. What you do with it, that's free will. And that's the clue here. Free will. You can choose, you can opt not to use the GPS, and instead use your head. You can opt not to use a calculator every time you need to do some basic math. Use your head instead. You can choose to drive your car yourself, instead of letting a computer do it. You can choose to not sit like a zombie in front of a TV and be entertained all day long. You can choose not to pump iron and teach your Odin that being able to repeat tedious and heavy tasks is what matters in life.^[5] You can do a lot of things to change this, to influence not your DNA, but the activation of your DNA for your children. If you choose the challenging life, you will improve your kin. They will be more and more able to face those challenges. If you opt for the high-tech, comfortable life, where nothing really is a challenge. All you need to do is to tell your phone to do it, or push a button, or have a computer do it for you. Then you, your kin, will be increasingly stupid until they have no brains at all in the end. Note also that the building material that is to be chosen has to be there for it to be able to be chosen, right?^[6][7] And yes, Odin is the mother cake, the sum of all your ancestors, the placenta.^[8]

1. The Norns (Midwives) can READ your Fate when you are born by studying
   the placenta.
2. What kind of buildings does the Constructor WANT (or feel a need) to build?
3. No glass will be needed for a barn. No roof tiles for a simple shed. Etc.
4. Some of it will be discarded.
5. Well, that is what matters in the life of a factory worker.
6. With time, DNA giving you high intelligence will be DISCARDED (lost),
   if it is not needed for many generations.
7. If you have only MUD, then you can build a mud hut. If you have two unintelligent parents, then it is hard for the gods to make you any different.
8. Remember that BEAUTY in nature equals GOOD HEALT AND INTELLIGENCE
