Destiny is a wonderful little outline on how everything will work out, but free will can rewrite the outline as things come to pass. It's like the highway system, the road is already laid out for you, but there are numerous interchanges, off-ramps, and forks you can take; the road is set, the final destination isn't.

By pursuing your allurements, you help bind the universe together. The unity of the world rests on the pursuit of passion.

FRENCH PROVERB
Each of us is a citizen of a common planet, bound to a common destiny. So connected are we, that each of us has the power to be the eyes of the world, the voice of the world, the conscience of the world, or the end of the world. And as each one of us chooses, so becomes the world.

Destiny is not preordained. Destiny is ordained totally by you. Every single moment of your NOW existence is the result of your previous thought. The idea that everything is already laid out for you in advance is a hallucination. You can and do manifest your own destiny.

Destiny is not a strange power which determines what shall happen to me. It is myself as given, formed by nature, history, and myself. My destiny is the basis of my freedom; my freedom participates in shaping my destiny.
PAUL TILLICH
Systemic Theology
Destiny is knowing when you are tried by the fire, that you come forth unscathed like the Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace.
