In the end of the day, to paraphrase the essence of all wisdom, we have a simple choice in life: to see life as a predetermined, predestined reality, or as a opportunity for us to do whatever we want – while the latter seems far more sexy, it is the former which is; for if you believe things are preordained; at most, you will be humble; for none of us get all we desire; and hence you will consider yourself underserving, and the benefit to that is, you will be happy! for if you do believe life is an opportunity- then whenever you get anything you want, you will consider yourself the master of your fate and hence become miserable, why you are such a poor master of destiny!
