By your description your are classifying us as one big eternal one. Since the all that ever was began it grew from one thing and your saying where all part of it. So when we pull away the layers and gain greater senses of awareness once all the unreal is dissipated and we shed our layers back to the source we gain new more refined awareness to go along with it. When we go back to the very first layer we realise nothing was ever not real because the experience excisted for us and was all neccesary because everythought (butterfly effect like) changed everything for us and others around us greatly so even the tiniiest arguments with our mind between ourself were relevant to us one day in one lifetime finding our way back to the source and still being apart of all our former selves but each time having a different perception that allowed us to be in the solution each knitting through. When we find ourselves allways in charge of our free will at each new perception but as we are from one thing at the birth of everything eventually we became everything and we are free will so everything has free will.
