If God controlled time, then the time is pre-destined, unless time travel exists, and it does. Destiny, freewill and time travel contradict, but life isn't that simple. Roberta Sparrow's fame welcoming novel lets us into her time as a living receiver unlike my own. Time travel is possible. This ability comes with danger, danger I'm not sure I could live with. Ironic. She had to use her ability, but did she ever get rid of it, is her mission not complete. There isn't a set duration of time someone is stuck having to fulfill their mission. Is longer better? Or does it come with more room for error? If time travel is needed to fulfill missions, what's the chance she is still using hers. Maybe it was kept for her to assist with my mission as her part of the manipulated living, if that's what she is. Perhaps she is the manipulated dead instead. Gretchen Ross, that's not even her real name. Where did she come from? I know what she told me but that's not necessarily the truth. What if it was all lies and this is the truth. The truth is Roberta Sparrow and Gretchen are the same person. Not ideal for me, but it doesn't matter what I want ro who I want. Was the only person who seen me for me really an 99 year old, time-traveling author? She, Gretchen, once said to me, "What if you could go back in time, and take all those hours of pain and darkness and replace them with something better?" That was the sign, and it shouldn't have gone unnoticed, she said it, "What if you could go back in time," that was it. Grandma Death was stuck in a loop, in more ways than one. She crossed the street in front of her house to the mailbox everyday all day long managing to never get hit, unbelievably. She managed to stay alive to help me fulfill my mission.. .of getting hit by a plane engine. Coincidentally, or not so coincidentally, Gretchen gets run over by a car on the same street Grandma Death has been walking back and forth for years. But the only reason Gretchen got hit and killed was because Frank was trying to not hit Grandma Death. It is illogical to think she could have time-traveled in that short time frame?
