The truth is I don't know because what i know is we are the one that makes our future, but when it comes to bible there are many people there that is destined to be someone, like Moses, he is destined to free the Jew's in Egypt and to gave the commandments of God and Abraham also, he is destined to be the father of all nation. What do you think??

hello Ben3rdchaster! i believe in destiny.. there are things and events that are destined to happen to each of us..however, sometimes our own choices hampers the actualization of these destined events or brings our destiny to a whole new level. For the most part, all of us has each own destiny to fulfill. That's why some people who barely lift their fingers became such famous people in our history, because no matter waht, they were destined to become such before they were even born. I believe that before we are even born, God has already made plans for us. As to what role should we fulfill here on earth, as to who would we become, to whom we will be partnered and etc. we are not mere chance offspring or a particular set of parents, we were pre-destined to be where we are now. Some people fight the elements just to ward off their destiny or bring them closer to their own destiny. but isn't that what's life is all about? who would know what are our destiny, except the one in the Heavens? maybe after all, we write our own destiny.. even if we are predestined to become a very successful and famous person but if we unfortunately made the wrong choices in life, then we then perceive that we are destined to become failures? we make our own destiny by the choices we make, the decisions we make affect the shaping up of that destiny.

actually I do believe in destiny I know we are the one who choose our path in life and with that there are only two destiny that we have one is the negative path and the other is the positive path. If you notice in your life even if you don't want a certain event that may happen to you and do everything just to flee to that such event it still happen to your life right? if not I guess you still don't notice it. Because I have many experience on that I notice that there are something that going to happen to me and no matter what I do It still happen to me. And also where are all destined to live this world right we cannot change that there are lots of thing the are destined to happen that we don't notice because we are to busy in our life and on the thing we do and the others they just don't want to know it or give attention to it.

Hi xero eight: I understand your statement. The only difference with my opinions is that you call it destiny and I prefer to call it circunstances. Basically I beleive that, if an event happend it was not because it has to be like that. This happends generally because of the decitions or mistakes that you or other persons make. We have control of our lives excepting these circunstances around as that don't depend of our own decitions. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day. ALVARO

Hello, I believe in destiny but it's people who create their own lives. For every action you do, there's an equal outcome of it. Life offers you a lot of choices and opportunities and it's up to you on how you'll face and handle this. There will always be crossroads and that's when you have to weigh things over and see what matters most to you. I hope we try make good choices everyday. Cheers, Honey

Events gives the person to lead into it's destination. Some are fate and some are pre-destined,even before they are born. We can never say we are destined to be raped or murdered,that's too cruel then. We make our own destination,we walk our path. We had our own free will,and not by someone's direction. If,someone made name,or being successful on it's career without hardships,it is called destined by the events,desires and willingness. Even thu people will push you to other directions,if you choose to walk that path,no one can stop you from following your own destination. Happy weekend

Hi Ben 3rd chaster: I think there are a combination of facts that we can change and that is what we consider destiny: we can chose where are we going to be born, or our parents and some other circunstances and problems that we have to face in the future but it's clear for me that we can change this "destiny" with our decitions. For example, Moses had to accept what God ask him to do and so do Abraham. Thanks for starting this discussion. Have a nice day. ALVARO

For me I don't believe on it because destiny is the cause of too much hard work in your life you gain of what you plant.

Destiny are made by the person himself. You just there and wait for your destiny, then your destiny is to wait. Do something and you destiny is to do something. Well it is just destiny is how we made them.

I beleive destiny.But i think we can change our destiny by our hard working and chance.For example,you are a poor man destiny,you will work very hard and earn much more money to change your poor conditions.Many examples shown that you can change your destiny.Some blind man become successful person.This is the example of changing destiny.
