Buddhism suggests that you have that choice you are in the driver's seat. Hertz or somebody has put you there. You have an absolute choice about what you experience in your mind.

You'll notice all around the Hindu temples couples, statues and drawings, in various erotic forms of love-making. This used to give the British a lot of trouble because they were kind of white and uptight. It didn't quite fit. How could a temple of God be covered with pictures of people, in their term, fornicating?
