How do you link your choices to these outcomes? Simply existing has an impact on something, be it as little as the flow of air molecules around your body. The logical conclusion, if you wanted to eliminate your impact on the future, would be to cease existing. Are you going to restore the order of nonexistance?
I guess it can help relieve the mind to consider ourselves not as single billiard balls knocking each other about, but as the game entirely, including the players, the spectators and I guess the space they do (and don't) inhabit. Wake of the ship, tailing of the cat sort of thing. In essence you are both the cause and consequence, not either or the other.
It's really quite interesting, and very scary, when you bring solopsism into it. On occasion I've fostered the panicked idea that I'm the effector of the evils in the world, primarily because I have cause to notice them. What I mean is that my insistant believe that the world is as, or should be so, has itself manifest reality with all the unintended consequences of my wilfully ingorant morals.
I don't know, I only attended 2 weeks of sixth form philosophy. Take the piss out of me, please - i's the only way I will learn.
