Is Your Destination Your Destiny?

by Laura Interval

When you think about what you want to achieve in your life… do you hope for greatness? Do you want to reach a higher goal? Do you know how you’re going to get there? Is your destination your destiny?

That word, destiny, often seems mysterious or elusive, doesn’t it? In the past, when I thought of my “destiny”, I would wonder what waits for me at the end of my road. I would try to figure out which of my favorite fates were controlling me that day. And then, I started paying attention to my life. I was forced to take a look at my choices and take responsibility for my own lack and unhappiness. And you know what? It’s not out of our control. My life was exactly where I had put it.

If you know where you’re going, if you point yourself in the right direction… your destination will be your destiny.When I get into my car, my little gps system (I call her Lucy) will ask me to type in my desired destination. I tell her exactly where I want to go… and she tells me how to get there. I used to ignore her. I didn’t ask for her, she just came with my car. Stubbornly, I didn’t want help… I often liked the challenge of finding my own way… or just thinking that I always knew the way, I guess. When I found myself in the wrong part of town at the wrong time of day, I turned to Lucy and guess what? She helped me out. She proved that she could have saved me the stress in the first place. Ok… I get it. Now, I don’t go anywhere without her. Why would I?

Well, I came across this quote the other day and realized that it tells exactly how to get to where you want to go in life. It is a step by step guide to your destination. Choose to follow it and it will take you to your desired destiny.
