So, Lost is found, and all is okay, right? Wrong.

I watch Lost, actually I am completely obsessed with Lost. I never understood how people could become so enthralled by things of fiction, by actors or bands, movies or televsion. I have seen Star Wars, and I love those movies, but I just can't understand how some people have formed a religion around the force, how people spend lots of hard earned money on things like costumes and collectibles from the movies. Please understand I am not making fun of these folks, I just never understood......Until now.

If you my friends do not watch the ABC hit Lost, then most (if not all) of this will be completely "Lost" on you. (Wow I am really using that word alot in here.) If you haven't watched the show, and are possibly going to check it out then read no further, spoilers of the show just far lie ahead, and to know before you know well, that just takes away the wonder of the show.

So time IS a factor, I feel justified in finding that out last week, it is a theory I have had for quite some time, friends of mine who watch the show cried foul at this idea until this season started, and specifically the episode last week (The Constant). Getting at least some form of truth to this idea has opened up my wildly imaginative mind to more speculation as to what lies further down the rabbit hole. So here goes nothing.

To Die is to Die...Or is IT?: Characters both central and supportive have died on this show since it's begining, actually I start with a character who technically was dead before the show even started, Dr. Shepard, no no not that one, his father. Jacks pappie died in Sydney, which of course was the reason that Jack was even on Oceanic 815, yet way back in the first half of the first season we saw the senior Shepard not in a flashback, but ON the island, walking and leading Jack to a source of water which without the survivors may not have. It was accepted at the time that Jack was delusional, and hallucinating his recently lost father, but as I will get to soon, it may have been something completely different.

The Russian: Old one eye seems to have himself on hell of a great immune system, the man has been shot, had his brain pureed and most recently detonated a grenade....right next to himself. Now as of now the Ruskie is dead, or at least presumed dead, but having came back at least one time from the grave, I think he may be heading back to the island before all is said and done.

Charlie: The latest sacrifice to the island, our good friend, and rocker/recovering heroin addict, died while calling to the outside world a true heroic act, and we miss him, cause he's dead, right? Well if Charlies really dead, then someone needs to work on Hurly's meds in the world of now, cause he's hanging out with him. Oh and someone else at the sanitarium saw Charlie, yeah I know it was another nut case, but TWO nutcases having the same delusion...thats odd isn't it?

Now to the theory behind this, and remember kids this is big while it is just a theory, I actually think I have cracked another part of the Lost mystery, read on at your own peril:

Every single character on the show, be it the survivors of Oceanic 815, Desmond, even SOME of the others have had their lives planned out for them by either The Dharma Inicitive, or the core group of the others I.E. Ben, Richard and of course Jacob.....I'll also even throw Mr. Friendly into that group, I know he's dead, but is he dead?

Here's the backround:

Sometime ago, a group of people (who would become Dharma) found an island, on this island they found that time could be upset, tampered with, and altered. These people used this for the obvious purpose of furthering thier own lives, and creating a world that they could control and rule over...Yes I mean the whole world, not just an island. Well something went wrong, and time became out of sync, the world began falling apart, and something had to be done to fix the problem.

At this point I am not sure what happened, either Dharma themselves attempted to fix this, or a group of people from Dharma left the rest, and went rogue. Becoming the others, they found that outside of the barracks, and the sonic barrier they were moving differently through time, slower than the real world. The Others as they would now be refered to killed the members of Dharma (as we have seen) and took the island over. Next is where it gets real strange...bear with me I am trying to put this into words for the first time.

Once in conrtol of all the resources on the island, the others (led by either Ben or Richard) began the long process of fixing the problem that Dharma had made. They traveled (conciousness only) throughout time, finding the future, the past, and where each was coming from and going to...I.E. where everything truly gets messed up. They knew what had to be done, and began putting the puzzle together. The next thing they did was recruit people throughout the timeline that could help them to move key players into the postions they needed them, making people (and yes I am talking about 815) go through experiences to prepare them for what they would have to do once they were on the island. Some of the people that I think were or possibly are agents of the others:

Christian Shepard (Jacks father)

Anthony Cooper (Lockes father (?) Sawyers Parents con artist)

Charles Widmore (Penny's father)

Dave (Hurley's imaginary (?) friend)

Joe Inman (The man in the hatch with Desmond)

I am sure there are others as well, but think about it like this, Each one of these people have done something that was imperitive to the characters on the island and here they are:

Christian Shepard: Made Jack into the doctor he is, set in him the seeds of leadership, and power (I know these are kind of bland reasons, but the fact that he led the survivors to water does say something, I mean you can't see dead people.).

Anthony Cooper: okay where to start with this guy, He caused the deaths of Sawyers parents, which pretty much made Sawyer, and he took Lockes kidney, which we don't really know now if he did take it, or just had it removed from Lockes body so that when Ben shot him he wouldn't die....put that in your pipe and smoke it. BTW, I do not think he was actually Lockes father. Oh and how in the fudge did he end up ON the island?

Charles Widmore: To start off he is a very powerful person, I know that isn't enough, but factor in that he was really the reason that Desmond ended up on the island, and there is a bit of a connection there. Also in the last episode, when Desmond was jumping around in time, I noticed that there was something recognizable to Desmond when he interacted with him, as if he knew that the Desmond he was talking to was not the Desmond of that time (I could be reaching there, but hey it's my blog.).

Dave: Dave could be a phantom of Hurley's mind, it is a possibility, but since this season, the fact that Hurley has seen Charlie, and the Cabin, and possibly Jacob, well I now wonder if Dave was meant to do something in Hurley's life that may not yet be seen, as I stated before, you can't see dead people, and possibly a man could see an imaginary person, two people can not see the same dead person.

Joe Inman: Okay some of you may not remember this guy, he was in the hatch when Desmond crashed on the island, and I know you could say that he was a part of either Dharma or the others, which I think is true, but what makes him interesting is the fact that he was in Iraq and working with the US Military when they got into Sayid's base, he was the one who made Sayid torture his superior, and then let him go with some kind of parting words about his future.

Wow, this is getting long....

Onto the current agents:

Michael and Walter: Keep watching, I am almost sure that Michael is the man that Ben has on the boat, I believe that once he was freed from the island Michael was put into the employ of the others, along with Walt, and yes that was the real Walt that Locke saw while his was in the body pit.

Charlie: I believe that Charlie has been put into the role of another time agent, and in the future he is trying to get Hurley back to the island, cause there is more that Hurley must do to fix the problem in time. Onto a stranger theory, Hurley and Locke, and Possibly Jack have an acute sensory ability to see people who are traveling through time in a different way than we have seen so far. I believe that while it is true that only the conciousness can travel through time, which means that they can only travel into a place and time in which they have already been, there is a possibility that they have a way to travel in a more free way, to other places they have not yet occupied, but are more like ghosts than actual people, and only certain people have the ability to see them. Boone may have also done this, in some of the times that he has gotten Locke to do things.

Okay, I know I have freaking lost my mind here, here's one more thing and I am done.......

Locke is the Key: John Locke, maniac? Or the central cog in the whole machine?

So we dismissed without any explanation that a man who was paralyzed for four years could get into a plane crash and suddenly be able to walk.....This is like the opposite of how these things are supposed to happen. Fine I will leave this one alone, onto another.

Locke hangs out in cabins that aren't there, and talks with people who aren't there. So we got Jacob, Boone, Walt, Echo, and god knows who else. Locke has had an ability to see things that aren't there, but then so has Hurley, and Hurley is crazy, so Locke is crazy, right? Wrong. John Lockes the man to which this entire show has centered around, what ever it is that needs to be done, Locke is the one that must do it. His ENTIRE life has been carefully planned out to get him to where it is that he is going. I have a completely nut-job idea that I will share at the very end of this rant.

What ever has happened to the island, someone very special has to fix it. someone who has a unique connection to the island, someone who was born on the island, an island that for some reason women cannot give birth on......until now.

While Claire did not give concieve her son Aaron on the island, he was born on it, giving him the possible power to communicate and manipulate the island, but being a baby won't actually accomplish this. However this is a place where time is manipulated, so maybe Aaron could be moved through time, and be able to come back and fix this......Maybe Aaron is a baby JOHN LOCKE. Am I crazy? Is this completely nuts? Or is this perhaps the biggest secret of the show? Here's the facts:

No Child has been born on the island, and it has been something that the others have been exhaustively trying to accomplish.

John Locke was an orphan, and his true parents are not really known.

John Locke is more connected than anyone else to the island, including the people who have been there most of thier lives.

John has some kind of affection towards Aaron, possibly a subconcious connection to him.

Holy crap, I think I may have just uncovered the biggest secret in the shows history!
