Some people have complete free will, some people are ruled completely by destiny, and some people are destined for certain general life moments and are otherwise free. Which would you rather be? And what are the implications if you are ruled by destiny or are completely free?

Of course we have free will. But is that what determines what we do on a daily basis? Does destiny tell me to fasten my seat belt in my car or is it free will?
I believe that our lives are pointed in a certain direction. What we do between the time we leave and the time we arrive is up to us. Thats our free will.
Destiny?.. yes.. to a point.

Did you ask that question out of your own free will or did destiny make you ask it?

If we were governed by fate why wear a seatbelt? Studies have shown that people who wear seatbelts live longer than those who don’t. I know this illustration is simple but it makes sense to me. So yes we control our lives. Granted there are time and unforseen Occurrences that befall us all.

destiny decides your fate but you decide your destiny

Your decisions now will be your fate in the future.
