do you believe in fate?

what if it greatly alters your course in life? would you follow or resist?

lol


If you go or stay .. isn't a your conscious awareness of following, nor resisting because your fate isn't something you know the outcome of.



Silly girl .......

I believe that everything that happens was GOING to happen already. People say that changing their own paths changes their fate, BUT have people ever thought that it was in their fate to change their plans/paths the whole time anyways? I believe that a big part of where we end up or who we end up with has a great deal to do with the choices that we make.

I spoke to a psychic once (one of the REAL ones)..he told me that I'd be meeting one of my soulmates in spring of 2010. I said, "Well, I'm moving around the same month that I'm supposed to meet him. So does that mean that b/c I'm moving, I will no longer meet my soul mate?" And his response was that regardless of where I moved, fate was fate & that my soulmate would naturally find me wherever I was, whether it was in my current city or new city. It sounded kind of cliche at the time, BUT then again, I think many people are assigned many different fates. Everything doesn't always have to be about only having 1 ultimate destination or option for how we'll end up. Me moving to another city in Spring might cease me & that particular soul mate from meeting BUT, it won't stop me from meeting ANOTHER one of my soul mates in the city that I chose to move to. So in this case & in alot of cases, it all depends on your own perspective..it's all about how you look at things

Well one, everyone's definition of "fate" is different. To some people, fate simply means that everything that happens to them was "planned" or was going to happen to them no matter what choices or routes they chose to take. To some people, whether they chose to go left or right won't matter or change the course of "fate," which is the final outcome. People change their minds & their decisions & paths all the time. And just b/c things change, doesn't mean that fate does too. Sometimes it was in your "fate" to change paths. I believe that people do drive the cars to their own lives. For example, if you were saved from getting into a bad car accident, some would argue that b/c they survived the crash or didn't end up crashing at all when they should have, that they were somehow able to change or outdo their own fate. While others believe that it was in their "fate" the whole time to survive or avoid the crash all together (as if "fate" already knew that you were going to survive or avoid the crash). Like I said, it all depends on a person's definition & understanding of what "fate" is

No.

We make choices and suffer the consequences of those choices.

Are other animals lives predetermined? I don't think so, and I also don't think humans lives are any different.

Just as your astrology chart is already mapped-out, so is too (your) fate. I believe fate is like a book already written, and therefore you are living out each successive chapter. Some have many chapters, some only a few. The paths you choose & follow may seem like (free-will), but fate has/had already chosen you to choose those paths, regardless. Fate doesn't have to be a four letter word, either. Fate CAN be the best thing to happen to you. When one door closes, another (often better) one opens. Fate & Life's lessons (Mastery of the soul) entwining hand-in-hand..

hummmm related to the two ideas of time fate could be part of one but not the other.

If the past and the future are always present in time then there can be no fate.
If there is a start to time and a finnish then fate could be.

another interesting paradox must put on my list of things to think about at the White Hourse tonight

"when one door closes, another opens"-

look so long regretfully upon closed door, do not see the one which has opened for them ~Bell
