In life do you think that if things are meant to be they will happen...

Do you believe in this or you think things just happen for no real reason???

I think everything happens for a reason. I may not be able to see it or understand it, but I do believe there is a reason for it.

I think things happen for a reason, but this is NOT the same as thinking that 'if something is meant to be, it will happen." I believe you need to work to earn things - not that you are predestined to receive or not receive certain things.

I do, but I also think you have to be an active participant in your life to help make things happen.

ITA but at the same time if it was meant to happen then you would work hard for it if it wasnt then you wouldnt.

This is what I believe. I think things happen for a reason...because we have laid the groundwork for it, not b/c some supreme being is controlling "destiny".

i don't think anything happens by accident.. I think everything happens for a reason, and while we have to be an active participant.. that participation ALSO happens for a reason.

Re: In life do you think that if things are meant to be they will happen...

I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and there is little we can do to change the outcome.

So I guess I also believe that everthing is predetermined when we are born....our path is set!
There MAY be different paths based on our decisions, but it is all pretty much laid out "somewhere"....

I agree. I think the paths are out there for us to take but it is up to us to decide which ones we're going to take.

So to some extent destiny plays a roll but we also have control over it.

I don't agree that everything happens for a reason..certain things that I went through in my life I don't see a reason for it happening.

Re: In life do you think that if things are meant to be they will happen...

I am a firm believer in everything happening for a reason, although sometimes we have a hard time understanding why. I think a lot of times ( especially when it is something bad) it is to teach us some kind of lesson.
