Destiny is an interesting concept. Most of us have had things happen in our lives that may seem "strange" or the outcome of an event in our lives was hard to explain. Usually you look back at those events and wonder were you given a second chance? I have seen these things in my life and others. Is this just life or is it a sign of preordained destiny. An eternal question that cannot really be answered.
Creating my own destiny though suggests there is no preordained outcomes and that I create my own destiny by my own actions. Freewill. I prefer the idea for freewill.

React on this: True
Explain: Your choices make what happens to you, everything has a conciquence; whether it's good or bad. We're given the ability to tell right from wrong and choose how we want to live. I Don't believe that i was "destined" to stub my toe this morning, i believe that my eyes were half closed because it was three in the morning and i was getting a glass of water without turning the light on. So no, i don't think that people have a destiny, but some people's lives can be very predictable. Those are usually the boring people though.

Reaction - True. Explanation - Every human has been given Agency (the freedom to choose) and the ability to learn right from wrong/good from bad based on the consequences felt by the decision. Pre-destiny is a fallacy; fore-ordination, on the other hand, has merit.

Environment creates humankind's destiny. Humankind has to refute this destiny and build their own destiny. Gods and Goddesses don't create destinies, but they sometimes interfere or detour the destinies of humankind.

well, not all men, some men theyr destiny is created for them, look at present president bush, he cant talk, went to college to party> ? yet his family and his press secretary, and those who helped him to speak in public did, i think litiraly normal people can create his own destiny, but other if lazy or dont watch, other will create it for them, its about the choices we make every day/minute. when we let other to do that, they are helping, creatin some thing they will and we let that happen by how we react to it

Our actions create the outcome of our life. If we act heroically, then we are rewarded for our actions, and we are destined to have a charmed life....or if we act cowardly, then we become shunned by society and are destined to be an outcast.
