Fourteenth Entry

Fourteenth Entry: 11/15/09 8:12:29 PM
What to talk about? A writer, such as my self, has the world at my fingertips. In my last two entries I’ve given insight on some hot topics; as a result, I think it would be appropriate to write something about me. I was talking about what I would enjoy to do for a profession when I grow up. I answered that my profession of choice would to be a military doctor. And the person who I was caring on this conversation asked me if I was afraid to die. I am one of the fortunate people who are not afraid of death. It’s not because I think I am some macho man; ergo, it will be impossible for me to die. It’s not because I think God loves me, and he will spare me. I simply believe that whatever happens is meant to happen. Here in lies another slew of questions that I will attempt to answer without anybody asking them. I am not a Calvinist who believes in predetermination, or predestination. Do I think that I have a destiny? Yes. Do I know what it is? No, i wish i did. If I die tomorrow, I believe that God has a reason for it. If I get paralyzed in a car crash, there is a reason for it. There is a reason why you are reading my blog, if not for pure enjoyment. No matter what things happen for a reason. I have done some research on The Chaos Theory. This theory pretty much says that everything just randomly happens, there is no reason for anything. I find this hard to believe. We all have lessons to learn, and I believe we meet certain people for certain reasons, or certain things happen so we can improve our character. I do not agree with this theory. Because I believe in destiny, I am going to assume that somebody is going to ask me do you believe that you can change your destiny. Well if I am not sure of my destiny, how can I change it? I am going to end with a line from the movie The Last Samurai, which is an amazing movie that I highly recommend. “I believe a man does what he can, until his destiny is revealed to him.” And that is what I believe in the simplest words.
