Destiny/Faith

Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too


From wikipedia: Destiny refers to a predetermined course of events.

Lately, everyone seems to be caught up and busy with their lives. Everyone seems to know what they are doing...and somehow I guess that's what everybody secretly yearns for isn't it? To know the true meaning of what they are doing, to have a valid and justified reason for every step they take. To be in control of their destiny and course of life.

Which is an irony according to wikipedia. Destiny refers to a predetermined course of events. Predetermined. Meaning whatever effort you put into having even a strand of "control" over your destiny is, to put it nicely, futile (or fucking useless, if you may). Since everything is already pre-planned, you are then a mere pawn, unknowingly forced through the fixed order of things in life. As much as you fight to break out of the sequence of things, it's pointless. You are pretty much set for life.

This brings about another question.

Why do we even bother trying altering the course of our lives, contemplating decisions, going back and forth about our delusional senses, doubting and reaffirming our judgments?

As bleak as the post may sound up till now..I secretly believe with as much truth as destiny may contain, we all need a little faith in our hearts. The spiritual belief and reliance on a something else rather than ourselves.

We are still, humans after all. Having to shoulder the full responsibility and blame of our actions and choices..it can get a little overwhelming from time to time. Taking a little breather from all that obligations once in awhile is not wrong. I'm not saying you can hide away from the seeds you sow totally, but having a little faith in life to ease a little of that constant worrying about your actions and decisions do help. Like how the Spaniards put it, "que sera sera", meaning "whatever will be, will be". Takes off quite a bit of worrying if you ask me.

So after a streak of constant worrying and uncertainty.. I'm just gonna take a leap of faith and continue doing what I (strive to) do best. Not over-thinking, not over-delving into things, and just be contented as it is.

And for the one who gave me a topic to write on (like a primary school kid haha), whatever unforeseeable future you have, whatever Destiny may have in store for you, I hope you'll learn to see the good in things. I hope that whatever little you may choose to believe in, you can at least turn to faith to take a breather and not shoulder all the blame in the world. I know things are gonna turn out alright somehow, I just know it. And all you need is a little faith to believe in that too. :)

Come what may, come what may.
