Do you believe in Destiny? ⁣

Santosh Kanekar

Like everything is decided and ⁣
you just have to go through ⁣
the motions and life will anyway do their bit⁣

How does that make you feel?⁣

Maybe you believe in free will, ⁣
that you have a choice and ⁣
a mind which can choose ⁣
what you should do
Eg ⁣
even if destiny has brought ⁣
in front of you vanilla flavour, ⁣
you still choose tender coconut flavour⁣

Sometimes believing in destiny helps you
to cope with the immense, crushing loss you may experience ⁣
⁣eg “sir, we have run out of ⁣
tender coconut flavour, ⁣
try passion fruit flavour” and ⁣
you say “life sucks, it happens” ⁣
and you move on ⁣

Telling oneself ⁣
everything is destiny ⁣
eventually makes one powerless⁣

Worse it makes you shirk responsibility ⁣
for your actions and definitely for your responses⁣

Pain and obstacles are inevitable⁣

We don’t have to make ⁣
a cool meme or a cosmic story ⁣
out of it every time⁣

Then what do we do?⁣
Here’s the answer⁣

“The broader view we gain by stepping out ⁣

means learning to see yourself ⁣

as the chessboard, ⁣

filled with possibilities, ⁣

rather than as any one piece on the board, ⁣

confined to certain preordained moves”⁣

Steven Hayes- founder of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Purpose of Life is to Live⁣
in all its various dimensions⁣

Embrace this mindset⁣
with its unlimited possibilities⁣
