Do you believe in fate/destiny?
I’m not sure is the honest answer. Sometimes I do. I believe things can happen for a reason. Other times I prefer to be the arbiter of my own life. Fate or destiny can be a bit of a cop out. I think you need to make things happen, not wait for the universe to hand things to you on a platter.
I do think we perceive time as linear when I think it may not be. So, what might seem like fate could be a memory of a future time seeping in making the decision feel familiar or right. I have had deja vu moments that feel like memories but they just happened.
It is odd. I go back and forth on this. Perhaps certain things are fated to happen but we can alter the minutiae.
