Destiny,Fate,Karma&Serendipity

Serendipity…the gift of being able to make delightful discoveries by pure accident.

Destiny…one’s predetermined lot.

Fate…a power that supposedly predetermines events.

Karma…what you give, is ulitimately what you get.

Do you believe in fate? destiny? Karma? SERENDIPITY?

I’m not so sure anymore, I used to believe in all of it…that everyone had a chosen path in life…there were different choices you could make to get to your destiny, but you always ended up at the same place by fate. I suppose believing in all of these seems like a fantasy…it’s too good to be true, right?

In my short life I’ve made a million decisions, some wrong, some right, some I’m not sure if they were either…from deciding what to wear, to if I should take my own life or not…they’re all desicions that I’ve made…were they right or wrong? who cares…

I’d like to think that my life is going to be eventful and that I do have a destiny and it is a great one…but how do I know?

They say that everything happens for a reason…there are no coincidences in life…we’re all here for some reason or another…life only gives you what you can handle…what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger…blah blah blah…all those cliches…well…what if everything happens and it doesn’t have a reason? Maybe there are just simple coincidences in life…if we’re here for a reason what is it? Some people can’t handle what life gives them…and what doesn’t kill us, just simply doesn’t kill us…

If I didn’t exsist who would care? Who’s life would change because I wasn’t here? and why would it matter? well for the first question, I have no idea who would care if I didn’t exsist, they wouldn’t know so they couldn’t miss me…I guess my parents lives would be different, but I think for the better, and I’m not sure why it would matter at all…I could question myself to death couldn’t I? *smiles*

I guess no matter how juvinile it may seem, I do believe in fate, destiny, karma, and SERENDIPITY…I choose to beilieve in it, because if I didn’t…I don’t think I would have anything to look forward to at all…I live for my destiny whatever it may be, I want something great to happen to me, I want to be happy, to look back on my life and not think about what a waste it was or is…I have to believe that someday I’ll get something that made everything else worth while…

Something that made my childhood worth enduring, made being alone something I could handle, made not killing myself not a mistake, something that I’ve been waiting for my entire life…I just wish I knew what that something is…

Yeah.. “I believe in karma.. what you give is what you get returned…” .. gotta love Savage Garden…hehe

i kind of believe in the same thing. Good point about who would miss ‘you’ if you were gone. I wonder the same thing at times. Am i that important in the grand scheme of things. I do believe everything happens for a reason, i just hope that’s true.

I believe in Karma. But I don’t like thinking of fate and destiny. I don’t like thinking that someone has chosen a life for me already. Take care. ~Jenn

I do believe in all those things…you do make a good point though…about maybe it all doesn’t exist…because you haven’t seen it yet. But you also have to think that maybe your whole existance in this life is something that is trifle or unimportant to YOU…but means the world to someone else! You have no idea WHY you were on this earth…you just live it to the best you can…smile and love!
