Answer 2

Yes I do believe in Destiny, but you are not bound to follow it to the letter. Every day of your life, you may receive a sign that contains a message. Some times when you want to do something real bad and things keep happening to prevent it, those are signs that it is bad karma.
Sometimes you will be watching TV and a statement or a visual item will stand out like a sore thumb and stay with you for a moment. That would be your message for the day. Life is not a random factor.
Consider this: Every Cell in your body must have enough intelligence to receive and execute commands from your central nervous system. We do the same in our everyday lives. The trick is to recognize when we are receiving those commands.
Try this: When you misplace something, yell out loud: Where the heck did I put those keys? In a very short time, you will remember what you did with them.
Try it, What have you go to lose.
We all follow a "Probability path. Every time we make a decision, we change our Probable Future. That is what Destiny represents.
Here is another little off beat thought for you.

Wherever you are on your life's path, you can look back and see the entire path. Maybe it is conceivable that in some plane or some time That Future path already exists and our job is to find it.

Answer 3

Yes i believe in destiny big time. You will come across signs everyday of your life. It's the signs that stay with you that have specific meaning to you. Althogh you carn't see it right know it will make sense later when you can put the pieces of the puzzle together.

For example in year nine, many years ago, I had to write out a five year plan. Thinking nothing of it i wrote down get married at eighteen, have my first child. My husband will tall, slim brown hair and have blue eyes. It all came true. Got married three weeks after i turned eighteen and was pregnant with my first child. Without thinking and purposely making it happen it happened. So yes i do believe in destiny and free will because it's your free will that determines weather or not you follow your destiny.

Answer 4

Free will is an illusion. But do not underestimate the depth to which you are immersed in the illusion.
At the level of ordinary consciousness, you have free will, and all it's consequences. What you choose to believe is part of this too.
You are like a character in a book. The character does not know what will happen to him, or even that he is not real.
If you have a good look, the character realises he is really the author.

Answer 5

things happen for a reason. Was 9/11 destined to happen? What about Hitler? Aren't we all destined to die? yes, I do believe in destiny, but that does not mean that we don't have control over our lives. I choose whether I want to wear a blue shirt or a white shirt, but I don't choose when Im going to die...

Answer 6

I believe that there is a road, mapped out for each of us, in this lifetime (whether we had a say in another life time as to what it would be, one can only speculate), we can follow that road, precisely and to a tee, or we can veer off the path, imposing our free will.upon our situation, unless of course our free will (our choosing) is to follow this path, this will make another road for us to follow, when we choose a path off the main trail....there are...many paths......we get to choose which one we want to take..... free will is ours.....but, by taking this "free will" so to speak.........could that have been our destiny anyway, from the very beginning? that is the question...are we actually choosing our pre-determined destiny by choosing free will? (we were always going to do it anyway) something to ponder, as I am sure many of us do from time to time.

Answer 7

I think you could look at another way. Suppose there is one outcome out of all the possible outcomes. This means that whatever does happen, that outcome was the "destiny". You are still free to make choices, but the choice you make becomes the path that was always your destiny.

Answer 8

Destiny is the things that we can change of our own free will. We
choose to marry, have children, to use our skills and talents, to resolve our own karma. The more we take control of our own individual destiny, the easier it is to deal with our fate.

Answer 9

i belive in it and its cause i felt the hands of the destiny how were making a mess in my life!
I sometimes thought that i can do everything i want cause the power of trusting in my belives its tuff but i found out that is not always how u want and not everytime the sun has to rise in your life...
sometimes u can see that sad things are happening, sometimes you cry thru inside cause theres nothing u can do about ure life, but thought i feel soo disapointed i belive that everything i do is cause it has to happen and is for a good cause;
when u want to do something and u really want it with ure heart u wish for that thing thing to happen u wonT miss it cause will came in ure life even it will came too late
...in life everyday u take decisions and that decisions take us on the way until ure dreams fullfil... we make ure destiny thru our decisions
we choose a new life we choose a new job, a new half...we choose destiny, soo i thing that we are destined to choose what is wrote for us...good or bad thats ure life and we should accept it and smile a lot for living here, now ...forever :))

Answer 10

I believe in destiny.

It doesn't mean we have no control over our lives... we have to make the choices, whether they are right or wrong, but I do believe things happen for a reason and that we have a 'life path' to walk along. Although we may leave the path at times and go for a wander, we will somhow end up back on our path.

Answer 11

I believe because I think that life is a blend of free will and destiny.
