I had lived a different life?


Why does everything seem to be great when one looks at it from a positive perspective?
Why do other people's lives sometimes seem to be more interesting than ours?
Why do problems seem to be worse than others when they belong to us?
Why is it so difficult to believe that one can?
Why does one usually wonder: "Why me"? and does not find a clear answer?

Sometimes it is not possible to explain why certain things happen, or why one is "part" of a specific moment in time and space... or why some people appear in our "path", helping or annoying us...
Many times I have thought that life is a great play and we are the protagonists. It has got a beginning, a development and an ending. But my question has always been: do we build our destiny or is it already "written"?
And my answer has always been the same: For me, Our Destiny is already written but we choose the chapters we want to live... 

That reminds me of those stories that my father used to tell me when I was a child: "Choose Your Own Adventure". They are a series of game books that consist of a story in which the reader has the opportunity to choose his own adventure throughout the book. The best options you take the best ending you get.  



Sometimes Life is not as we wish it would be. However, we can find many beautiful people, things and situations in the path that will help us to "build" our destiny or at least to guide ourselves to the best ending!

What do you think: is the destiny built or is it already written?

  1. Gise, what an interesting topic! In my opinion, our destiny is somehow written. Because there are things that we cannot choose from birth. But still, we have the rights to change it. If we consider each plight as an opportunity to
    learn, and we can choose which path to walk, we are taking our own decision.

  2. In my personal opinion, there is an omniscient present. There is God, the creator of everything, the supporter of everything. Now, who or what God is, we do not for sure. And we will only know him/her/that when we encounter (the same) at the right moment after our death. So, we should try and live our lives piece by piece, moment after moment. We build our moments every day, the good ones and the sad ones. That is our life !

  3. It’s something that I have always thought about. In my opinion, life is already written. I think God has a plan for each of us and that we meet people because of a reason. Nothing is just because. Therefore, each of us has a specific “task” to do here on earth that we may not know but it’s there. I like to think that life has a bigger purpose that just being here spending the years.
