Hey all!

I was just wondering how of you believe in fate, meaning that your lifes course is already written for you?

and if you believe in such a thing, can your fate be changed somehow? can you neglect your fate or our you controlled by forces outside your control?

My personal view (at the moment, it will probably change after this discussion) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bigwink.gif) is that people have certain things they are good at and certain things they are not, but I do not actually believe in fate at this time as don't like the idea of not being in control. I guess whether your LHP or RHP has a lot to do with it.

Greetings,

Well my 'view' upon fate is this:
'fate' isn't a path you are predestined to be something 'fate' is the Result of your path the ending point... so in this perspective 'fate' is very flexible and can easily be changed as you and your personality change.... it's like jumping out of a plain with a parachute you have paths you may take "either plunge into death OR you may simply pull the parachute cord and safely fall and land on your feet" for which ever YOU CHOOSE is YOUR 'fate'...

well that's my view on fate...

Ive always thought (im an idealist) that sometime before i came into existance i must have made a conscious decision to fling myself out of that plane....? In any case, it the same destination...solid, firm Earth.

hehe, your kind of "choosing" reminds me of a baby sitting tip i acquired a couple years ago; when you want children to do something they dont want to do, just give them the choice between X and Y. X being a nap and Y being a timeout. X being "eat your vegetables" and Y being "early bedtime". The important thing is dont take anything AWAY from them. Positive reinforcement...HaHa i cant get the picture out of my head: Mommy Fate slapping our wrists and sending us to bed early. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
