I wanted to ask: Do you believe in destiny?
Is your life path all figured out? Or is it changing all along your way?
I for one don't believe in destiny. I think I make my own life and my own choices and that it's not all known from ahead.
If it is. Than it's preety boring.
No?

Well, you can look at that way.. or try this way
Perhaps a person does have their destiny figured out(me) but within this destiny, you have the capability to have decisions.. to change certain things. Which I have.
So, for some knowing your destiny is not a bad thing at all..it just depends on how you wish to live it with. If you only decide, I know my destiny and that's that..then that would be boring but you decide to have your destiny and do more with it.. then, you're doing more than what you're intented to do.. which would be create a totally different path that has a connection to the first one..
Understand?

I believe in fate, but the way i look att is: Fate is a book, a half written one. All the spicy parts or important parts are already written (like who we marry, ect...) but its up to us to writte all the missing parts that will get up us there....  |

[glow=purple,2,300] um...I don't think I understand what you are saying Freya because what I understand form your post is just this: everything is planned out for us, we have decisions, yes, but someone already knew what we were choosing so the decision wasn't really ours...it just appeared to be so...cuz either way, fate had it all planned out what we would chose so it made things hapeen to make us decide what we we're "supposed" to...
well that's what I understand...and I like your theory Lotu...I don't agree but I like it...
the way I look at it, we make our own fate, no one will tell us different...sure there are clairvoyants and card readers and such that can tell what's going to happen but they can only say it's likely to happen...depending on the decisions you make after finding out this information...that's what gets you there...
see...and example...say fate has it all planned out that you're gonna meet the man/woman of your dreams that will eventually become your wife/husband when you go to visit your friend in the summer..(according to fate)
well shit comes to pass and you either can't make it there this summer or your friend dies suddenly in an accident before summer and you never meet that person...
everything changes constantly...no one can tell what they will do..in fact some just do the opposite to deny visons or just to prove someone wrong..
well after making you read all that crap...I agree with DarkW...that's pretty much it...

But like Bunny I don't believe in it. There are too much X and Z and Y in life... Just doesn't make sense. Oh and Bunny, the colour you write in really reminds me red cabbige salad.  ;D |

I believe that we ultimately have one pure destiny a point that if we live our lives well we will reach it.
Yet along this path we have a multiple of choices that potentially alter that outcome.
Most of the time the choices that we make merely change the curve of the path. Like walking through a wood obstacles like trees can be moved around without changing the ultimate destinantion.
Yet there are times when something happens great enough for that destiny to be stopped. Be it as a result of our own actions or inactions. When this happens the path that we are walking along ultimately changes destination. For good or for bad.

Lotu, I'm not saying all men make it sound better.. only him! He's the greatest!
But you are no image of a man.. you know that! You're more female than anything! You've a scar from COOKING cookies, for god sakes! (I'm not being mean, it's the truth)
But destiny is real.. it's our reason of birth!

And do we really have a reason of birth? Aren't you just trying to grasp on something? So you beeing here would have more meaning. |

oh but who says it doesnt?
believing in something u dont want to believe and have no reason to believe will just hurt you....
no point not beliving in meaning (if meaning makes u happy) coz u really cant prove it exist or doesnt exist
and about the original subject...
im not really sure but im starting to believe we do have this planned path for us
