I think a persons life path was determined while they live through their life. In ancient Greece, the people believed that there were three Gods of Fate, one that control when the life start, one that control what happens during that life, and one that controls when the life ends. The Gods do all this by knitting a long scarf that contains the starting point of one's life and the events the person has to go through. The Fates keep knitting until, the Fate that controls when the life ends cut the string to end the life. All this happens while the person is going through their life, the Fates just plans ahead to see if the person will follow thier path. People say even the Ancient Gods themselves are affected by the Fates choices.
I think a person can change his own path today, not the Fates. The person can change his stars by making the right choices that lead them towards their goal. By doing this, the person can follow thier own path and plan their own future.

I found your reference to Greek mythology interesting. It conveys how people at the time tried to understand how their life plays out. I agree with your view that people can make their own decisions and decide what they want to do with their life, rather than being under the influence of fate, which dictates everything that they do.
ReplyDeleteWhat would you suggest for a person to make the right choices that lead them towards their goal?

ReplyDeleteI think you should of gave more detail on your answer. It was a little too broad. I liked how you used the connections of Ancient Greece Mythology and how the Greeks thought Fates controlled their lives. Is this where the word Fate came from? Or was it just interpreted this way?
