Life often presents us with different situations and these situations can be categorised in mainly two types, one which are completely under our control and the other which are not in our control. And the situations which we are not able to control, we call it as our destiny. But destiny is something more than that.
Destiny is not about where we are born or who our parents are or how we are raised. Destiny is about the choices we make in our life, and these choices decide the course of our life. Whatever the situation, whether it's in our control or not, we always have a choice about how do we respond to that situation. This choice will lead you to the take some action which will have its own result. And ultimately, this result becomes our destiny. Hence, our choices shape our destiny. Thus, we can understand destiny as below.
CHOICE -> ACTION -> RESULT -> DESTINY
Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.
For e.x., you cannot have a fit body if you don’t take proper diet and do regular exercise. Its always your choice what you eat or whether you do the exercise or go for walk, etc. It's your choice here that will decide your health condition. If you fall sick or face any disease, it's because of the choices you made earlier. And if you are fit in your life even at an old age, that is also the result of your choices. Your choices are the cause and the effect is your health condition.
We often blame to destiny or God for things and situations that occur in our life. But it's not right. We are responsible for it. As the saying goes, “You reap what you sow.” In Vedas also it is described as, if you sow good seeds, you will reap a good harvest. Remember, God is always fair to all of us. And you always get what you truly deserve.
