Cats generally hunt and kill rats. Almost like they are meant to. It’s a matter of destiny… or so we believe.
Well, it need not be so……

What we do in life
is more a matter of CHOICE
than of destiny!
“I couldn’t help it!” is more often than not an excuse for bad performances and undesirable behaviour.
One hardly ever says this when one has performed well or succeeded.
We proudly claim responsibility when we do well and succeed.
We must also accept responsibility when we do not measure up.
Professing helplessness and blaming destiny is an appeal for sympathy and an excuse for our not having made the necessary effort.
I have my own definition of destiny:
Destiny is what will happen to us after it has happened to us.
Everything that has happened to me till now,
because it has happened to me,
can be considered to be my destiny!
If I see things that way, then I can choose and shape my destiny. Within limits, of course.
Sensible thing would be to make the kind of choices that will ultimately lead us to a desired destiny.
Occasional goof-ups are allowed but we can always get back and make things happen for us the way we want them to.
