Many things in life are not inevitable. In fact, we can’t even tell how long we are going to live. Have you ever wondered what your life would be ten years from now? Some did, and some didn’t. Some people died thinking life while there are also individuals who died cursing life. Some people believe that it is destiny that brought them wherever they are today. On the other hand, there are also people who believe that it is their plan and perseverance that brought them wherever they are today. Does future depend on your destiny or your choice?
There was once a young boy who was told by a fortune teller that he should not marry. If he ever gets married, his wife and children will bring him bad luck, and he will eventually end up homeless. The young boy hated the fortune teller after that. He did not believe anything about what the fortune teller said. Or at least, he is determined not ever to believe it.
The young boy was determined to prove the fortune teller wrong. So he worked hard in his studies. He was always on top of the class. He did his best in everything. He made plans for his future and worked hard for those programs. Few years after he graduated in college, he was one of the best architects in his country.
He was 30 years old when he married. After a year, his first son was born. By then, he knew that the fortune teller was indeed wrong about what he said about his future. His wife and son have only given him more blessings and happiness in his life. He became more inspired in his work. Now, he owns not just a beautiful house for his family but a few apartment buildings which also serve as homes for other people.
Our future is not defined by our fortune alone. We choose our future. We plan on it and we worked hard to carry out our plan. We can’t just sit down and wait for our future without doing anything. If we don’t work for our future, nobody will. We can’t blame anybody if our life doesn’t end up very well.
