Destiny And Karma

Do you believe in destiny or karma? Can both be true?

This is a great question that many people would love to ask themselves and in the end, cannot see the answer(s) to. Whichever way, many people have different points of view to this question which might vary from individual to individual and sometimes may have the same answer or point of view.

Destiny is a future event that can happen to people. Sometimes many people do say they believe so much in Destiny as it is the best way of hoping for the future. I'm many ways as well, people do go to meet up with people who can tell the future to know more about their destinies. After the research, they will look for ways to keep what they have been told. To me, when you know what the future holds for you, you will find it difficult to make it because you will not work towards it since it has been said that your future will be bright. So, you will by all means walk like someone whose future is going to be bright and ignore doing what you are supposed to do to make your destiny come true.

So, to me, I believe in destiny as this is something so real and something that can truly come to reality. I'm a real sense, the way you play your path towards achieving your destiny lies in your destiny. This means your destiny is in your hands. I was opportune to meet up with a fake fortune teller and he told me that my destiny was to become a politician which I laughed at because I have nothing to do with politics. So, becoming a politician is absurd.

Karma on the other hand is what you do now and will come back to you in future. This is why we must remain real and true to ourselves because the bad you do today can fall back to you in due time, it's only time that can tell.

I so much believed in karma as this is what I have experienced and seen happening to people. Some may happen in years to come, but some will not just waste time. There was one that happened at my place of work last week. A lecturer is fond of sending children home for just little things. He deprives students of writing tests and makes them fail in his course. No parents had ever called him about the bad deed he had been doing, but I believe that parents have been praying for karma to take its place. So, just last week, his son was punished and sent home. This man got angry and came to the school to fight. When he was bragging, someone who knew him came in and indeed after seeing the student whom he had sent home before he did not dispute any longer instead said "it's the deed I have done that is following me'. So, karma is real and can happen to anyone and everyone. When you do good, the result will be good luck following you but when you try bad, you will reap the reward.

So both destiny and karma are true. They are something that can appear real and true. So, we all need to do what can make us not.to fall into the realm of seeing the bad deed we have done.

The truth remains that we all have destinies no matter what since we are humans. So, your destiny depends on how you place your life and what you do with your life. This is why we must not joke about working so hard. A man was told he is going to die by the knife. He tried to keep the knife away but in the end, he wrongly kept it somewhere so risky when he was sleeping, so it fell on him and indeed he got killed by the knife. Your destiny is in your hands.
