Have you ever felt like something was just… inevitable? That you and another person, or a certain opportunity, were simply 'meant to be'? It's a comforting thought, isn't it? The idea that some higher power or cosmic force is orchestrating our lives, guiding us toward pre-determined paths.
But is it truth, or just a pretty story we tell ourselves?
The allure of 'meant to be' lies in its promise of ease and certainty. It suggests we can relax, trust the universe, and allow things to unfold. However, relying solely on this notion can be passive and even detrimental. It can discourage effort, blind us to red flags, and prevent us from actively shaping our futures.
Perhaps the most empowering perspective lies in recognizing that while certain connections or circumstances might feel serendipitous, it's our choices and actions that ultimately determine their trajectory. Maybe 'meant to be' isn't about fate, but about the conscious decision to nurture something beautiful, to invest in relationships, and to work towards the life we desire. So, embrace the possibility, but remember – you are the author of your own destiny.
