ok ive watched the first 5 episodes of lost season 1 again.. im beginning the rerun of them all
and without a shodow of a doubt i will hold my hands up if i am wrong, but from the very start, since locke saw the smoke monster when hunting for boar he has been led by the island..
examples..
he saw the monster.. suddenly he appearrs with a boar in his possession
jack falls down a clift when running after his dad, u can hear whispers saying 'help me', suddenly locke shows up
camp needed water, locke says 'ill go , after all i know where to find it' - because the island is showing him
...
i imagion u have picked up on this before, but without a doubt now, locke has been used by mm since locke looked into the smoke monsters eyes.. and i guarntee u will see that scene in season 6..
and to quote locke again in epoiosde 5 when talking to jack 'i looked into the eye of this island and what i saw was beautiful' .... what he saw was what he wanted to see because the smoke monster (mm) read his mind and gave locke the picture he wanted to see, ever since locke has trusted this monster, the island and has been the loop hole from the very beginning and as i continue to watch it i will try update.
any thoughts feel free, but i had to get this off my chest. i am convinced
