Do you believe that our lives are mapped out in a sense, by a ‘God’ or just by the universe, or do you think that everything happens due to our individual choices and coincidences?
For example, maybe at that
time you need a certain person to fulfil a certain purpose, whether it’s
emotional, carnal, to bring a sense of happiness, or to show you that you need
to change some things about yourself. When bad or negative people come into our
lives it can seem confusing, but I think toxic people teach us that we deserve
better. No one deserves a friend/partner that puts them down or makes them feel
like shit. Likewise you can be really close to someone who suddenly disappears;
maybe this is due to the universe pushing them away and showing you that you
don’t need that person in your life, or maybe revealing things about them that
you didn’t initially see.
I don’t really believe in
coincidences, but I guess sometimes things happen because they happen.
Sometimes there really is no reason other than ‘it was that way because it was
that way.’ Why do bad things happen to good people? ‘Good’ and ‘bad’ are highly
subjective. I don’t think the universe ‘cares’ about us per se, it just flows
and moves us from one situation to the other. It’s amoral; things happen
because that’s the way they do.
But naturally, like
attracts like, as are the laws of physics. (I've always hated Physics). Positivity
does breed more positivity. If you fill your life with things and people that
make you feel good, your brain will feed off more of that. Likewise if you feed
your brain with negativity, your brain will feed off more of that. Notice how
if you start the day with a negative attitude your outlook tends to be negative
that day? It works both ways.
Situations are situations,
it’s how we react and interpret them. On a good day, something may not bother
us; on a bad day, that same thing could cause us to blow up or burst into
tears. It can be confusing, wondering if it happened for any ‘divine’ reason or
if there was no reason other than the way we were feeling that day.
When two people fall in
love, did that happen out of fate or hard work and a decision to be together?
Maybe a combination of both, or maybe one or the other. Or maybe it doesn’t
matter. Either way, having a good outlook on life will improve your chances of
emotional and spiritual satisfaction, and going with the ‘flow’ of life takes
away a need to hold the reins. It allows you to become more relaxed with the
way things are as opposed to how you want them to be.
personally i tend to air more on the no destiny side but i will admit i believe fate might exist to an extent
ReplyDelete"But naturally, like attracts like, as are the laws of physics" Which laws do you mean?
ReplyDeleteI'm no expert on Physics but I'm pretty sure that Quantum Physics states that everything is made up of subatomic particles vibrating together in energy waves hence the phrase 'everything is energy and that's all there is to it.' As our thoughts and behaviours are also energy waves vibrating, whatever we put out we will attract - it's like if you have a magnet it attracts like objects. There's scientific evidence that meditation helps to improves people's lives due to positivity generating more positivity. Obviously this doesn't apply to everything, like five year old kids that get cancer didn't 'attract' that, it's just a genetic mutative disease.
