Do you believe in Destiny? Do you believe that if it's meant for you no matter what happens then it's really for you? We have choices in everything that we do. Our fate really rely on what decisions we make in life. On how determined we are to make sacrifices just to reach our goal or how willing we are to give up the things that we have just to work out the things between us and the one's that we care about. So for me, I don't.

I have a friendly but heated discussion with a dear old friend of mine. I insisted that no matter how hard you try to avoid certain things or circumstances, destiny or fate still happen in your life whether you like it or not. According to my friend, everything is the result of the decision one makes and everything that follows is simply the result. So far, it is a tie.

It's interesting that we all have our different perspective about destiny being true or not. Maybe it's true, maybe not. For me, what matters is in every decision that we make we should think first before doing something at least we have tried than doing something without ever thinking but having lots of regrets after all. That's life! :)

Yes, I do believe in destiny. Whatever happens, happens for the best. Yes, everything is destined but the individual chooses their own path by the decisions. Many people believe that destiny is a predetermined course of events as if it is already fixed in the natural order of the cosmos. Some say you create your destiny, others say it is pre-encoded. Some say events are random, others say you make it all happen. In spiritual terms, it is a sacred path fated by the Divine. I like to think of destiny as an irresistible inner power or energy that one is compelled to follow. Just like every living organism grows according to its own unique blueprint, there is an interior map that compels us as humans toward our destiny.

we are given with free will so we could make our own decisions and pick our own choices. i believe that we are the only factor that could influence on the things to happen in our future. we are the makers of our destiny.

I really dont believe in destiny cause the things that are going to happen to you in the future will depend on the choices that you make now. I had the idea that it was m destiny to become a doctor but I am a teacher now. I didnt become a doctor cause it was my choice at that time to stop studying and not continue my medical education. It was my choice to study on how to become and teacher and it is where destiny lead me cause it was a decision I made before. It only depends on us on how we can do something about the things that we want to have. Our choices will take us to our destiny and its not about fate or coincidence.

I do believe that there is some sort of destiny in life, however it's not as narrow as what most people thought, that you can have only one path in the end. Life is more like a circle to me, you would start from the centre and ultimately end up at the circumference of the circle, however, the path you took will decide which portion of the circumference of the circle you would end up with.

Do I believe in destiny?My answer would be yes! Some would say, you are in charge of your future, there is no such things as destiny. I would say, yes! But as a realization, we are the creator of our destiny. Everything we do define our destiny. I guess we are the creator of our destiny. It is really up to us what things are destined to us. As a simple saying says, If we do something, something will happen. And if we do nothing, I can assure. Nothing will really happen.
