Blog-o-Sphere Think Tank – October Topic: " Do you believe in destiny/ fate/ kismet (etc)? "

October 20, 2013
October Topic: ” Do you believe in destiny/ fate/ kismet (etc)? ” 

Interesting question because fate is something that will happen whether you believe in it or not…but I believe that what may seem like fate is sometimes the Universe teaching us a lesson.

Have you ever had a friend come to you with a problem or situation and you help them work through it only to find yourself in something similar a short time later?  You were prepared to deal with it because it was presented to you earlier….

The word destiny bothers me a little because so many people don’t believe they have control over their own destiny – you are a unique individual – your life is not pre-destined.

From Our Fearless Leader – Andes Cruz:

What is this “Blog-o-Sphere Think Tank” thing?  Andes and several friends formed a group of bloggers…named “Blog-O-Sphere Think Tank”…we come together from different areas of life, ‘once a month’, to do a blog circle on a new but specific topic.  So, check back in once a month, or join us as we all write about the same topic, and hopefully we all post at approximately the same time , on the 20th of each month.  


We get a new and different topic each month which keeps it refreshing, and it is always  interesting, to read everyone’s unique take on a new idea or topic. It’s fun, light, and gets your mind going. Everyone has  different thoughts; so you might learn something, or open your eyes to new ideas . In any case, I hope you’ll visit all the blogs and have a read!
