Do you believe in destiny? Explain your answer.

Re: It’s written in the stars

No Minx I don't believe in 'destiny' .
Throughout our lives lives we make a series of choices, for me those choices determine our future not some pre destined arrangement made by something or someone unknown...

Re: It’s written in the stars

Yes, and no.

Re: It’s written in the stars

no as in no or no as in no you won't explain your answer?

Re: It’s written in the stars

I believe in destiny. (these days) we have very little leeway in our choices based on our own limitations both physical, mental etc. Ultimately everything we achieve on here won't matter. It could all be gone just like that.

Re: It’s written in the stars

Yes, no.

Re: It’s written in the stars

So do I, for all the elapsed days.

Re: It’s written in the stars

It depends on which direction time is moving.

Re: It’s written in the stars

I believe each of us can choose then manufacture our destiny with a mixture of opportunity, hard work and a bit of luck thrown in. By the same token I think one can create one's own luck with the same applications. I also think that we can have our destiny determined by others who control us in some way – or every way – But then again those plans are also subject to change by chance. But no I don’t believe in destiny as some pre- determined thing that is inevitable.
