The part of Neil Peart's Lyrics that I liked best are these:
You'll notice that Neil chose to put the first two lines in quotes. These are quotes: ("). That means that that's some people talking. Neil then comments on those, (some) people by saying this:
(Blame is better to give than receive).
I absolutely disagree with those, (some) people that believe that the "stars" and the "gods" control/run/plan/guide/et cetera, their lives. Just like Neil believes.
I respect your philosophy. I respect Neil's philosophy too. I respect everyone's philosophy. I'm glad that you respect my philosophy too. I'm glad that you took the time to read my post and clearly understand that I believe in myself. I blame no one and no thing or no Superior Being for anything.
I tust that you'll have a glorious and wonderful day. :-)
