Is everything already written in the stars? Is there a force that controls the future? Or is there a God's or divine plan that has everything being monitored? I do believe that there is a grand scheme of things that governs what we are supposed to learn in this lifetime. And I would even choose to believe that there is more than one possibility on how things can unfold to become what are so-called our destinies, all against the backdrop of parallel universes. And precisely because there are so many possibilities, we are not fated. While our paths might be pre-determined, we are also creating every second with our thoughts. How we are creating and what we are creating will lead us to "download" what will become our chosen path, amongst all. Indeed, the more we can go with the flow and not judge our experiences, the more we can accept our encounters with peace and joy. Perhaps what we have to cultivate is the faith that it will be an "optimal" path in front of us.
As always the universe will provide us with what we need in terms of our personal growth rather than what we want in terms of what we desire. Through the understanding of this very fundamental principal, you come to know what equanimity truly means, which is to achieve a state of serenity and even-mindedness and thus see everything that arises without discrimination.
