Overriding Destiny
Last week, I wrote about Life Purpose and Destiny. Our life purpose propels us forward along our path so we achieve our goals. We take strides towards our destiny. Our destiny is reflected in the things we achieve. Where did these goals come from? They came from the life plan we set up before we were born.
So the question is, “If we have a life purpose and a destiny, but we decide we don’t like the way things are going, can we override our fate?”
In addition to the broad outline of the life we planned while on the other side, we also have free will. We have choices. Many times, we use our free will to fill in the details of our destiny. For example, our destiny may be to experience marriage. Free will allows us to select our mate.
Other times, we use our free will to override our destiny. We make new choices.
If we pre-determine that this life will be about exploring illness, or loss, or lack of finances, and we get fed up with these issues, we can change the script. We can turn our life around. Maybe we can recover from the illness or find a better job. When this happens, we might wonder, “Did I use my free will to override my fate, or was my fate to learn how to overcome these issues?” Good question. How do we know? We don’t know. While alive, it is difficult to determine what is happening. The only way to answer this question is to talk to our Higher Self, perhaps on our own, or perhaps by talking with a psychic who has these kinds of connections.
According to a message channeled by Susan Sampson, free will can overtake fate. We have to go back to the original paradigm of the soul. The soul lives forever. If we choose not to follow our fate in this lifetime, not to do whatever desire we had within us, it is okay. We will have the chance to address this issue over and over until we have the courage, or the interest, or the curiosity, to explore it.
Susan went on to say: “Let me make this clear. Number 1, you don’t know your fate. Number 2, you have free will. Is your free will your fate? Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t. Is [your choice] wrong? No. Is it right? For this life, it is right.
“It doesn’t make a difference if you fulfill everything or if you take a slightly different route and you continue this issue into another life . . . Everyone is worried about getting everything right. There is no “right.” Everything is right -- even if you step diametrically opposed to the fate you designed. Perhaps your Higher Self looked down and said, ‘Let’s give them an inclination to do something else.’ The machinations of spirit and the options of the soul are so vast that you can’t grasp them now and you can’t understand them now, but there is no judgement on if you are moving on the path you designed or if you have chosen to take a step off. It is all correct.”
Everything we need to experience in this life, will be experienced in this life. Some issues will be postponed to future lifetimes. Take a breath. Do your best. Don’t get discouraged. Live this lifetime to the best of your ability and explore the joy.
In fact, enjoy the 4th of July.
