Is DESTINY for real?

Question

I mean do you believe in destiny?!That someone out there is meant for you.

Answer 1

Yes. We decide our ultimate destiny. Heaven or h**l.

Answer 2

Meant?  By whom?

Answer 3

A sense of destiny in its oldest human sense is in the soldier's fatalistic image of the "bullet that has your name on it" or the moment when your number "comes up," or a romance that was "meant to be."

The human sense that there must be a hidden purpose in the random lottery governs the selection of Theseus to be among the youths to be sacrificed to the Minotaur.

I used to believe in it, it sounds so romantic.  Now I think we attach 'meaning' to random events if they resonate wiuth us.

But I don't think it's quite that simple, as like does attract like, and people who are well-matched tend to inhabit the same corners of society and interest.

I do not believe in pre-ordained or fore-ordained 'destiny', but I do believe if we are really being ourselves and following our own muse, then we have a better chance of 'happening' upon other like minded individuals or fortuitous situations.

Like a cross between 'chance' and 'will' galvanized by action.

Of course, once something happens, we view it in restrospect as 'destined' or 'meant to be' suggesting some kind of divine intervention.

But that doesn't mean 'destiny' isn't sometimes the same as winning the lottery.  Random events happen by chance  (like your number coming up), but you have to fill in the ticket...

Answer 4

yes, but only because i have found.him.

Our similarites are freaky!!

and our differences, complement each other!

Where i am lazy he is active, and he stimulates me to get more active, and i stimulate him to learn how to chill out in front of t.v lol

and where he gets aggressive and angry easily, i am calm and relaxed, and i teach him to cool his temper and not get so angry!

We are totally made for each other!!!
