Correction to my last post. I was just told by one of my daughters that you can change a bad gezaira to a good one but not a good one to bad. B”H. So that makes me more confused about the Rosh Hashana statement that Feif Un wrote.
Like I said, this whole topic is complicated. Yes, we have bechira (to choose between good and evil) but a very big YES is that Hashem is in control of this world. Nothing “just happens”.
