destiny

We are confident that evil can never happen to us until it does

Clay in the hands of a good potter suffers so many good turns, but in the end, we see its real and true shape and form!

ego promenades, flounces, pushes in unwanted places, trips, stands on others, whereas a sense of destiny grounds - you just do what you do

The focus on our destiny and understanding our true self keeps us from not giving up

Who am I? The shell-selling Lace girl, the attendant of Lady Arilou, Mother Govrie__ other daughter, the thing of dust, the victim, the revenger, the diplomat, the crowd-witch, the killer, the rescuer, the pirate?I am anything I wish to be. The world cannot choose for me. No, it is for me to choose what the world shall be.

Some believe it's destiny, Some believe it's fate, but I believe that happiness is something we create.

You are in control of your destiny. Start making plans, set goals and work as best towards them.

As much as they were right for each other, time wasn't right for them.

Every person, I have come to believe, has a moment or a place in life when all four points of the compass converge, from when or where their life finally takes--for better or for worse--its fated course.

Alas, poor men, their destiny. When all goes well a shadow will overthrow it. If it be unkind one stroke of a wet sponge wipes all the picture out; and that is far the most unhappy thing of all. -Cassandra

The destiny of future generations depends on our action today

We did not receive this destiny by ourselves, God has chosen it for us

I'm not letting the world - or anyone in it - determine my fate. Not anymore, at least. - Ginny

Why do things happen the way they do? Is there some kind of order in all this chaos that we just don't see, or is it all, as the mathematically minded people would like us to believe, just random coincidence? If you put one hundred apes in a room, they'll tell you, with one hundred typewriters, and given an infinite amount of time and bananas, one of them would eventually churn out the complete Oxford dictionary. It's all statistical math and probability. The odds of winning the lottery are greater than the odds of getting struck by lightning, but someone wins, don't they? And people get hit by lightning disturbingly more often that you would think. Their point is, eventually all things happen. No matter how philosophically unprejudiced you are, you can't argue with statistical probabilities. But you can certainly give the mathematicians some substantial cud to chew on, can't you? For instance, sure, everything may be eventual from a statistical point of view, but what happens to the formula if you plug in when a particular thing happens? The fortuitousness of the timing? Or combine a particular coincidence with other seemingly non-related coincidences that might have occurred within the same general time frame? We've all had it happen. It's one of our favorite phrases: "Why me? Why now?" Well, when you take the "when" into account, all kinds of very interesting and un-mathematical things begins to happen. The coincidence becomes too coincidental to be a coincidence.

The future is not in the hands of fate, but in ours.

We are the products of fate, from beginning to end

If we want to live consciously, if we want to enjoy our life and not spend it simply completing the task of surviving, each of us must find answers to the questions concerning our destiny
