DO u believe in destiny??

An old man, sitting under this tree which according to him lost its life and soul the time it got struck by lightening, shares a story with it..And so does a girl...This girl, she just lost a chance to love the guy she wanted to be with...A chance she buried with him under this tree an yr ago...And she gives in to destiny thinking whats meant to be is whats meant to be...Shes ofcourse dissapointed and heartbroken...but she knows she cant shape and mould her destiny to be like how she wanted it..

The old man has a piece of advice for her...He tells her " Destiny is the bridge u build to the one u love...and probably shaping and moulding destiny is whats actually ure destiny"

Most of us take destiny as a natural course of action, a preset order to d cosmos, like a bullet wid ure name written on it or more like 'meant to be'..which makes it inevitable and unchangeable..I used to believe this theory untill a few years ago...but I saw things happen to me, to ppl, where a change could have made all the difference...I am writing dis tonite not just because im inspired by what d old man said, but also beacuse watever he said got me thinking dat giving in to destiny believing dats what was written for me, wasnt really the best idea..u knw d best way to live...

So I have this new theory...Well its not exactly new to everyone..it just struck me a lil late..but neways...From nw on destiny is gonna be the path i choose for myself..and im going to u knw make an effort to build tht bridge to d things and people I love...Cos if u dont make things happen to u in the way u want,then most likely they will happen to u odawise...and who knows in the process u mite just end up looking for something, finding something else, only to realize that what uve found is more suited to ur needs than what you thought you were looking for..dats serendipity btw..sucha nice sounding word for what it means, a fortunate accident..

Like i said its about a lot of soul searching, but its healthy once in a while..and i dont know if it makes u a better person, but atleast it gives u a good insight of what is like to be human...

ciao..
