It is what it is
"It is what it is" is a short essay by Karl Jones.
It is what it is
I'll tell you something else people don't like to hear.
We live in a deterministic universe.
What will happen has already happened.
Creation "is what it is."
Commentary
Notice how I am not flinging myself off the roof, nor being flung by my fellow men.
Good will, camaraderie, proper child-rearing.
All are essential to survival in #Our #Deterministic #Universe.
