A question that I am constantly going over in my head is whether or not we are in control over our own lives, or if some form of higher power has it all planned out. Can we really change our own path or are we predestined to a certain path before we are even born? Is it possible to make some sort of mistake and miss out on what was meant for you?
I think the answer is a mix of yes and no. I do believe in a higher power and I do believe that higher power is in control of all and has the "final say," if you will. But I also believe we can miss out on our "fate." But sometimes missing out on fate may not be a bad thing. Maybe you weren't suppose to catch that train that the man with the piercing blue eyes was on; it was a good thing you dropped your cellphone retrieve it. Maybe that man who you felt you had a "moment" with would steal your heart, but maybe he would turn out to be a psychopath years later and leave you with nothing. Maybe that dream job you thought you had in the bag really wasn't your dream job after all; and whoever is "up there" watching over has a much greater plan for you than what you can think up for yourself. Unfortunately the answer is not that clear and simple, we just have to hope for the best.
