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.I think everyone decides their own life path.You make the choice, so destiny could be real and it could be not.It depends on your beliefs. what do you think?

Hi Crazy_Poster! We look back in life for something to learn from because life is best understood backward but we have to keep moving forward to live life. Just like life destiny is what we make it out to be as well. Holding onto unchanging beliefs in changing times is just as much a destiny lived as changing beliefs in changing times.

you seem to like asking about our beliefs, hahahah.^_^ again, like "rebirth", destiny is some tool use to aid people on their way of life. it can be only a product of the mind, but, whether it's true or not, it has served its purpose well. people who believe in destiny easily accepts defeat and failures and move forward thinking something better is awaiting them. on the other hand, those who are skeptic about it, strive and work hard to make a difference or to prove that nothing is predetermined and that they are the ones who shall decide about their own path. either way, the creation of "destiny" has pushed both types of people to have the appropriate attitude towards living their own life. while this is NOT always the case, bottom line is, destiny can motivate both the believers and non-believers. as for myself, there are times when i would rely on the idea of "some things are just not meant to be" to easily move on and get over it, there are times when i'm all powered up to make my own path. i don't really question whether it's true or not, but i'm using the idea as much as needed just to encourage myself.

Yeah, may be it depends on one's own thinking. Well according to me, we make our own destiny. We choose what we want and how we want our life to be.

I truly believe in destiny I believe we are born with a script already predetermined. We as humans can delay so many events but it is inevitable they will occur in some other predetermined manner.

i'am not believe a destiny my friend.... in my opinion, all the things that we experience, have a causal relationship.. and i think, we're making it happen..

Each and everyone should have their own destiny, without destiny life is hopeless. We should believe in our own destiny. I have my own destiny.

The question has been around for a long time,ever since the search for the meaning began.As human we naturally look for ways to make sense of our lives and events that occur.YOU may have heard of Abraham Mas low and his infamous 'Hierarchy of needs'that takes you some survivals, into security ,then into love Belongings. I feel that destiny is real. Un till and unless we don't have any destination we wont be knowing what to do and where to go.Now I am here. I have settles.this is my destination.
