I believe that our lives shape us. Like a coloring book, the bold outline is made without our doing prior to birth. However, what's inside us, is what forms the details of our lives and "colors" it in. There are many things we do, and therefore experience, through our lifetimes that shapes us. The intial process is shaped by what we are born into.

Initially we try to shape our lives but if that doesn't go according to plan, our lives start shaping us.

Up to a point out lives shape who you become (childhood), and then you begin to shape who you will become....

Bit of both. Differs from person to person whether you are more reactive or proactive. Shaping our lives is more difficult but more rewarding as we have only one life .

We shape our lives. Our lives do not or cannot shape us. How would our life shape us? It does not have a conciousness to do so. Our conciousness is what shapes us.

When we're little our lives shape us, when we're older we (hopefully) learn to shape our lives.

when we begin to shape our lives,then our lives begin to shape us..... it's like we first create our habits and then habits make us (or perhaps break)

according to decartes we are the ones who shape our lives, we go from being to becoming, we are nothin when we are born, but as each day passes we contribute to who and what we are and what we will become.
