sometime i believe about the destiny especially about our ethnic, we can choose our ethic, where we will born etc. but for the soulmate, i don't agree. it's all our decision, so if we would like to have soulmate, have effort, change our bad behaviour, use make up, use parfume, increase your beautiful inside, so you will have soulmate, but if you make decision never married, it's your decision not destiny

Yes, I do and very strongly. And I know this is going to sound very lame to some but I think that when someone is saying they don't is almost like saying they reject their own self, and I think sometimes that someone has to be very arrogant for saying that fate and destiny are not real cos if your fate and destiny were not predestained then who would you be if it weren't you? someone else?? If your parents hadn't met, then where would you be?? That's right, not born, and not here but non-existant. So- for you to be here, then in a way, it had to be that your parents had to come together for you to be here-there, wherever you are- alive and breathing obviously, right?? And so forth, starting from you previous ancestors. And if it was a choice, then wouldn't you have had a say in where you born and to whom?? Is it your choice of who your parents are? And what country you would like to be born or what date, time, month and year or century even? I don't think so. To skeptics: Answer that if you can? If fate and destiny are not real......

Most of peole believe in destiny, but not for me. Everyone has own destiny, but it will be changed by oneself. My mom believe in destiny, so she often goes to someone's house to test her destiny. Sometimes she will ask my destiny from someone who can know destiny. I don't have a success until I'm 30 years old. Now I'm 27, and I don't still have a stable salary. I'm very anxious, but I don't know how to change it. I don't know what can I do now.
