Unwritten Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Destiny is just an idea born out of complacency and laziness to act, move or chart one's course through life. If everything goes well or if everything goes bad, It's because one allows it or made it happen. It is not destiny! .. If it were up to me, i'd retire the often misused and abused "destiny" out of the vocabulary. Edited August 11, 2016 by Unwritten Quote Link to comment
r35gtr Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Yes since we are all destined to die.hahaha hard to argue with this one Quote Link to comment
Bowman36 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I believe that there should be scientific evidences and explanation sa lahat... pero come to think of it... Meron nga yatang destiny... that's how I met my wife... chance lang tapos yun na pala yun... hehehe Quote Link to comment
blue+george Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 "que sera sera" all I can say is that, when you want something go for it. run to it, jump, skip, climb, beg, crawl... was it destiny for Thomas Edison to invent the light bulb? he said "i found a thousand ways not to make a light bulb, and I found one way to make one work." destiny? or diligence, patience, hard work and perseverance? you met the love of your life... and just around the corner dozens of beautiful women were also waiting... , life is about chances. when we fall in love, may or may not work. takes a lot of women and hopefully you fall for one and she falls for you.... in perpetuity... if not... blame destiny? hehehe  if you are destined to be, then you no need to do anything, its destiny, simply inevitable. if there is one situation wherein i'm sure we are all destined to become, I guess we will all die. that's our mortal destiny our mortal destination hehehe do I believe in destiny? no I don't. chances and opportunity a definite yes. patience, hardwork, diligence, perseverance? absolutely.

Edmund Dantes Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 The problem is, people do not want to find what their true destiny is. Like I repeatedly said. Destiny is not something that will just magically land on your lap and everything else will fall into place. You got to work for it, sweat for it, bleed for it. You gotta be willing to live through the hardships until your destiny is revealed to you. Most people if I may say so do not like hardships. Just because something is a little outside their comfort zone they will not step on it. They'd rather stay safe and comfortable Quote Link to comment
temurlenk Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Yes- But one has the power to control it. Destiny isn't merely free-falling and just letting things happen. Great people did not become great because of divine providence alone. They worked hard to achieve their goals. Sometimes we get what we want or we achieve our goals, sometimes we don't, but that should not stop us from giving up so easily and leaving it all up to fate. Some people will say- "Oh but I've done everything I can and still I failed (or I lost)- this must be my destiny!" Well it's not that you didn't try hard enough, maybe you did maybe you didn't, but I guess in the end, you just missed the opportunity. This is when your destiny is out of your hands.

p4tr1ck Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 no, i believe in good decisions in life, and excellent work ethic makes a man making his own destiny.. Quote Link to comment
Flash Sentry Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I believe in destiny, but I also believe in manifesting that destiny. That means the reality that you have now is the result of what you wanted to happen. So if you want to change your reality to something better, you have to want or manifest that reality which you aspire. Quote Link to comment
bakedzitiguy Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 sort of. sometimes, i have dreams that become true after a few months or years. parang dejavu. when this happens, i assume that my life is on the right track Quote Link to comment

Xir Xian Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 No. I believe in statistics, not destiny. If the bible says that there only a few specks of gold among a lump of clay (only few will enter the heaven), its very logical since christians only make a small fraction of the total earth population. And among christians, only a small fraction is good enough for the heaven's qualification. But does the heaven already got a final guest list? NO! Its still up to us to get qualified or not! Same goes for your career, lovelife, health, etc. Destiny is just a lazy excuse why you get a crappy job, a nagging wife (soulmate daw?! Di ka kasi sumo-ot ng condom!), or a cancer. But of course, statistics still plays a big part. You still get what you don't want. Quote Link to comment
jelly bean Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) Do you believe that certain things happen to you for a reason? That sometimes a certain sequence of events happen that bring to you a certain situation you never expected? Do you believe that there are people you are supposed to meet sometime in your life? What do you guys think?certain things happen for a reason? maybe. i have never been given a DEFINITE answer as to why s@%t happens. certain sequence of events happen that bring to you a certain situation you never expected? this is just so vague. that's life in general. a sequence of events. and how can it be certain if you never expected it? there are people you are supposed to meet sometime in your life? you'd meet tons of people. if they cross your way, then it looks like it.

shysadlonely Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Yes and No.... Yes because we all have our destiny.... every human, animal, plant, rock... atom... etc... are all destined to form this infinite universe..... each a part of something big....And No, on the terms of having a future set in stone... everyone can change and our decisions vary... and futures change.

Metikoloso Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Yes, but you must make a way to fulfill that destiny Quote Link to comment
CaptainCook Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 What we are now is based on the decisions we've made.There is no destiny,it's all a matter of choice. Quote Link to comment
