"Every man has but one destiny. Neither him nor the world can restrain him from it"...
We hear it all the time don't we? Take your destiny in your hands, just go for it,just change your perceptions et al. ... but the question is if everything has been decided already, what's the point of willfully trying to change something? aren't we all headed to our individual destinies anyway??
The answer i think lies in finding a balance... a balance between personal and nature's will. Perhaps this is the balance which Gods talk about in our mythologies. The ability to remain calm and detached even in the face of tidings, good or bad comes only by conceiving what has happened as the byproduct of both our actions and maktub (this is a very beautiful term meaning: It is written.). When one finds this balance, he is able to truly understand his purpose. Let me explain...
Say, a person wants to be a corporate honcho( :) A lot of you will be able to connect with this one i hope)... and starts off with a dream to make it big in life. Now, during the course of these myriad events which happen in life, he/she is made to face a lot of challenges,difficulties during his course. I believe this is an amusing yet effective way for life to test the person whether he deserves the cake he is about to get in the next stage. The funny part is, this happens at every stage this person moves ahead towards his/her dream. The good part is , if you clear the test, the cake keeps getting bigger and trust me..it'll be worth all the troubles. It becomes a question of how much tenacity, perseverance (let's cut out the big words shall we?)... basically how long you can stand it without chickening out :) ... it is a simple process of elimination thru which your own ability is decided. Now this simple process just to make it sound uber-cool is sometimes given the name Destiny.
So it all boils down to one thing. Dream, perform and have the spunk enough to stick with it...and everythin else will take care of itself....
Hope all you guys find your destinies and catch your dreams :)....
Adios.
