There is a path.. just because not everybody believes it, doesn't mean it's not real.. There are plenty of examples to prove that... So that's why I think it's true.. besides, if we don't have a path.. what's the meaning of our birth? And just because you believe in it doesn't mean it does. You shouldn't grasp for something that may not be there. You should live life to learn and enjoy them. Not because there is a chance you have an altonate goal. |

You shouldn't grasp for something that may not be there. You should live life to learn and enjoy them. Not because there is a chance you have an altonate goal. I believe in destiny but I don't live for destiny. I do not wake up every morning and say what will be my twist of destiny today... If you live your life well then destiny will take care of itself. It is how well you live your life not what your final destination is. There are a few people out there who do know their destinies. This can be a blessing as it adds to the reasons to learn things in life in order to prepare for it. I do not know my destiny and neither do I wish to. I already know my goal in life is to experience as much as possible and to prepare for my future lives. My future destiny will take care of itself. |

you make it sound like destiny is your master and your just a lil puppy, and whenever your good you get a treat!.... I think everyone should live like i kinda do (im not saying im perfect or something), to cross each obstacle as they come.... just live er' life then when its time to die, then you can worry about whats next!

Destiny isn't my master it is a constant companion through life.
Nor do I believe that when you are good you always get a treat. Shit happens no matter how good or bad you are. Thats life.
I simply believe that what you learn in this lifetime remains with you in the future ones. It opens your whole life to a greater purpose than just these few years that any of us lives.

Lotu, perhaps, your way is alright.. but normally, once you'd get over one obstacle, more would come. The way I work with it.. is deal with what you can now and prevent the same thing to happen in the future.. which would be the same way as Chaos.. Things you do in this life, is attached to the ones to come aswell...

if you live your life worried about whats around the next corner, then you never real get to enjoy it.... I don't like to live a life of worries, but thats me....

 the point of birth is merely to live, to make someone's life complete(if your lucky more than one person) and OF COURSE what you do is going to be tied to what is to come...life is just a sequence...like 1, 2 , 3, 4...it just works...but without 2 your sequence wouldn't work...but without 3 your sequence WOULD work... (1+1=2, 2+2=4...see) the same applies to life...you need your 2 but you CAN do without your 3...it isn't planned out...where's the fun if it...THAT would make life entirely pointless... and let's say a god(good and kind, all mighty..yadayada...)created destiny...then why do some people's lives suck and others don't...why is there war...and so on... destiny is merely a suggestion, something that addsto the life of some(2) and means nothing to the life of others(3) the way I see it...it's not important wether or not it exists...it's wether or not you're going to let it stop you from fulfilling your dreams... oh and um..if you do believe in destiny...don't blame it for what you didn't get done...think of what you had the oppurtunity to do differently...b/c without a doubt the opportunity was there... well those are my views...make what you want of them... PLUR  |

ummmm yeah. I understand the whole thing (i think), but the math thing is a lil screwy, what works in that wonderfully complecated mind of yours doesn't mean i'll get it ( ;D).... but its a good point
So im sticking with the "it don't matter" answer for this post!

But if I believe in it.. then for me, it does exist! You can believe that destiny is real only if you truely believe in it. Thats a believe as well. Live life without considoration about if maybe youll have anther. You shouldn't think about might may will be. You should focus on the present and on living life for fun and learning as much as u can. Check my sig || || and ull understand (or so I hope) || || || \/ |

CC Did you really not understand Shell Theory at all? Destiny is all about the final destination. How you live your life is the way you seek to achieve that destiny.
You of all people should be very focused on finding ways to make that destiny happen. Destiny does not take care of itself. It is what you make it. Have you learnt nothing from what i have been trying to teach you all these years.
No wonder the doors closed for you this time round.
