Do you think your life is determined by a special, individual fate, or are you free to choose as you wish?
fate is determined to be the will or principle, or determining cause by which things in general are believed to come to be as they are or events to happen as they do, my prsonal opinion to believe in something, is the begining of our personal fate, no matter what we hear, see and understand about life, freedom is followed by fate which is followed by foreknowledge that makes things como true. according to Theodore Shick, jr "part of what it takes to be free is to not be coerced or constrained by anyone" which means that is someone is forcing you to do something against your will or preventing you from doing something you want to do, you are not free. an example can be seen in The Matrix ( Movie) when by plugging into thematrix, cypher will be free from Morpheus, in my personal opinion i would say "NO", because he wont have the power to do anything, as Philosopher Immanuel Kant says " It is possible to conceive anything at all in the world, and even out of it, which can be taken to be good without qualification except a good will" in conclusion our daily lives experince three factors that give us answers and coherent meaning to understand the world and events that happen around us, Fate,Freedom and foreknowledge, in my personal opinion, i follow "foreknowledge" because it states that the future is open because it can unfold in more than one way.

"Source" & "Ontological status"
- The online dictionary by Farlex defines "Source" as the point of a system where energy or mass is added to the system, in my own words i can define it as "the Point of origin", according to the Matrix and Philosophy, page 61 (pp2) can support my explanation as it argues " the ultimate causes are for the things which we can categorize under " Real", they do not have to do with the causes responsible for creating the unreal world of the Matrix".
According to physics, "Ontological status" is defined as the argument of the existence of God holding that the existence of the concept of God entails the existance of God, in my own words interpret it as the essence and nature of being, to support this information, we can read on page 61 (pp4) " One way of determinig ontological status is in terms of dependence" as it argues that The real world in the Matrix, does not depend on something else for its existence, it stands by itself, as it were.
In conclusion, according to Gracia and Sanford "source" and "ontological status" are terms used to distinguising between the real and unreal worlds, as they argue on page 62 (pp2) the source for each and their ontological status clarify the distinction between the two fundamental categories of the Matrix.
