"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

Of course it's different. You got to work hard. Why would everyone get enlightened in the same time?

But i have hard to believe in that it is possible to have done things in an other way. I dont believe in choices.

Well, we don't have complete free will. There are some things that are karmically pre-determined, I suppose.
May we all fulfill our deepest wish for happiness

We dont have free will at all.

Then there is no point in doing anything at all. Its all pointless. Including asking pointless questions you don't listen to the answers to, making jokes, or trolling, whichever it is you are doing.
Of course, this is the opposite of the Buddha's teaching; the point of this forum.
The question is: why are you here? Time to get honest.
