Randomly Fated Notes
.1. For some odd reason, have been in the grips of crazy amounts of energy since Sunday. So much so that this afternoon, I walked for 3 hours and then I worked out for another hour.
You know when you’ve not thought of someone in a long time, and then you think of them, and then that same afternoon you see them by sheer ‘coincidence’?
Well. I think my current levels of energy are like that, serving as a precursor to something. Don’t know what just yet, but something. Huge. It’ll be huge.
.2. I placed the word ‘coincidence’ in those single quote marks because I don’t believe in ‘coincidence’.
Coincidence: A sequence of events that although accidental seems to have been planned or arranged.
…probably because I don’t believe in ‘accidents’. But rather, I believe in fate, and this I believe in all across the board.
A prime example of this is my following theory about our lives and actions as individuals. I don’t think that any of the experiences we have or any of the actions we take are accidental, as the definition of ‘coincidence’ would have you believe. I have faith that they are all taken, each and every one – including the darkest and most traumatic ones – in order to help us reach our potential as individuals.
It was only about five years ago that I understood that and internalized it. I don’t use it as an excuse for every whim and action, but since then and when am talking to myself (which I often do), I see myself much more clearly and completely.
Even our ugliest actions are a path to self-improvement, if we so choose.
Much like the notion of Yin & Yang…
That people have the ability to choose whether they will embrace one path rather than the next, is what allows them to either: (1) continuously challenge themselves and work toward self-improvement and potential; or, (2) not.
It’s really that simple. Or not.
Back to the point at hand. There are no coincidences, only fated incidents that provide you with choice. What you do at each turn is what determines who you are and to what standard you will be held when you’ve kicked it and are standing before God and he’s all “Why did you embrace the darkness, Darth?”
Footnote no. 1: This does not pertain to psychopaths. Nor does it pertain to planning and executing actions meant to harm others and then hollering "Hurting him made me a better person".
Footnote no. 2: Actions where you plan and then execute hurt on to your self, I find, usually serves to quicken and intensify one's resolve to search for the good within themselves and polish it. Lucky are the blessed individuals fated for this particular fast forwarding...
And yes, I am equally aware of the counter arguments to all of the above; only…I have chosen this path on which to live my life. Should you feel more comfortable in a vacuous meaningless hostile life, you 1/2 Existentialst, that’s your prerogative. You probably don’t smile as much as I do…
I kid. Really.
.3. I have refreshed all RPNs from last year, the only ones missing are the ones from the summer of 2004. It will take me time to revive them but will have them completed by next week, I promise. God damn it, some of them are really funny.
Like this one.
