Thoughts??? *(Wee thinky face emoji)
I think we are fated to experience certain things but have free will to make our experience good or bad. For example we see inspiring people who deal with great adversity with courage, humour and bravery.
What's yer thoughts dear fabbers??? Are you the the master of your fate, Are you the captain of your soul???
Special prize if you know where the line comes from... yet, if you googled it the prize is voided...   |

I think there is some element of destiny in our lives. Some people for example, or experiences seem to be meant to happen.
I do think most of us have choices how we navigate or fate. Some make better choices than others. Some go for short term goals others for the long game. Guess it all depends on the circumstances we find ourselves in.
I do know that with enough self belief, strength, motivation, courage, or support (some or all of these things) you can always make changes to the path that you're on.

Matrix trilogy encapsulates both religious and philosophical theories if you see past the action:
.
The problem is always choice.
Every action has a reaction, yet every action is time-independent unless there is causation. Therefore, everything you do is a universal sum of causation.
The existence of conscience makes you believe in purpose. Purpose makes you believe in fate, and ultimately superior existential being(s).
.
The Butterfly Effect is another brilliant film if you want your mind to explore free choice and causality. |

I think we pop into the world and somewhere there is a rough sketch or outline of how things are meant to go. So we're always kinda working within a framework. The quality and beauty of the final picture is down to us entirely though. |
