Question

no crackhead explanations please

Answer 1

What's a CRACK HEAD EXPLAINATION?




If we are in control of our destiny, I need a Tom Tom. I have never been able to make a plan work. Too many ppl blocking me.I graduated from college, but never got a high paying job in my field. I've had to tough it out at the grocery store. I tried to open my own gift shop, but ppl don't but gifts. They all run to Walmart for plastic crap! I want to be a rapper but can't get anyone to put beats to my music and I'm really good. So it must be them, not me. I wanted to work in advertising production and some jerk from Hollywood got the job...and this is Mississippi. Rangel wants to know who wants to live in Mississippi. The jerk who got my job...for one! I believe in God and I turn it over to him. But I'd like a break once in a while.



Anyone know how I can fulfill my dreams...let me know!

Answer 2

Nothing is written. Even crackhead replies are unwritten before they're posted. People who don't believe they can or are unable to control their own destiny usually end up having their destiny control their future. If all was already written, then what is the incentive to even try in life? We all have choices and those choices determine where we put ourselves and how we can best pursue our goals in life. That's the beauty of being free and living in a free society. We can think and make choices which directly affect the direction we take in life. I know this because that's the way our world works. If we are truly slaves to a predestined fate, then we can sit on our butts all day and never have to worry about a thing. No work. No bills. Everything just falls into place so we can bum around and just let things happen because that's how it is? No, it doesn't work that way. If it did then nobody would do anything. If one day you throw your hands up in the air and just give up on everything you ever worked for and blew it off as a wasted effort, then that's a cop out. It's an excuse to say you've given up. I believe people who fall into this line of thinking have never worked for anything in their life. They've never put the time and effort into anything to see it to fruition and know how hard it is to accomplish something that is the product of your own blood, sweat, and tears. If you aren't in control of future, then bad things will happen to you if you don't try. If you try and never look back, then you will see that you have quite a bit of control over the outcome of your life.

Answer 3

In theory, if we could someday figure out how and why all the laws of nature operate then we could indeed predict the future. This is what people say that either knowingly reference and understand this theory or not use to formulate their answer. But unfortunatly not every action has a predictable and definite reaction as proved in physics. So no, everything is definatly not written.

Answer 4

I think we are all in control of our own futures, we choose to go right or left, I also believe that every decision we make, good or bad, makes up the people we are at any given moment, everything happens for a reason.

Answer 5

We control our future but the thing about everything already writen is just the possibilities of occurences due to current events and action. Like math the answer is a finite number that is detrmined by infinite possibilities or varriables.

Answer 6

It is written as we go. Then it is compiled all into a script and a 'life movie' is created, so when you die and go to heaven, you can sit back and watch your whole life and the lives of people you crossed paths with along the way. How nice would that be...

Answer 7

No. the destiny is written contained in the be attentive to God The Bible. He it appears that evidently spells out the flaws which will take place till now we see the tip of the a protracted time. He defined the activities that could set off the tip...falling faraway from the Church, adult men/women human beings lusting after their very own style, earthquakes in places the place that they had in no way befell, famines, illnesses , wars and rumors of conflict, every day those are contained in the headlines. those weren't some poetic meanderings that could desire to be interpreted or twisted to in great condition any state of affairs yet undeniable information needless to say placed forth. human beings have been given loose will to make alternatives of their lives and that's those alternatives and the consequence of each and every that determines who and what we are. i'm going with to be a Christian by accepting Christ as my very own savior and lord and repenting of my sins the consequence of this decision is i visit spend eternity contained in the presence of my loving heavenly father, without sorrows, or death, basically exhilaration and love. people who go with to reject Christ have the eternal consequence of being in discomfort, on my own in finished darkness, without God, without wish, no 2nd threat, no get away perpetually..............Criminals go with to be criminals they go with to homicide, rape, scouse borrow, rob and that they achieve this understanding the consequence of their movements yet they nevertheless dedicate crimes with the aid of fact they think of they might get away with it. So contained in the tip that's our alternatives that ensure our course in existence.

Answer 8

Neither,
I believe that things happen, generally for no reason, and we react accordingly. We then try to justify what happened and why it happened, rather than just accepting it.

Life is not pre-ordained.

Life is not all that deep.
