Those who are destined to do great things, significant things, do not have to be told. They are born with a knowing. A destiny that is seared to their bones before they even develop. A destiny stitched to their DNA, long before it claims a face.
People are vessels that become homes for a predetermined placement and purpose amongst our society. Some may refute this statement with the equally convincing suggestion that nothing is predetermined and that everything is left to chance, that anyone can do anything. I counter this statement with the very idea and belief to some that science, ideology, and understanding is built on: plans, blueprints, and calculations.
Nothing can be created without sufficient planning and preparation. That being said, one cannot with good conscience and a sound mind believe that Mother Nature and the clearly detailed inner workings of this planet and our universe that we abide within, accompanied by the complex patterns and cyclical nature that surrounds human beings daily, whom are also walking, breathing, and communicative beings that are also elegantly and flawlessly designed parts of this so called “machine” known more commonly as “life” is simply a phenomenon consistent of no planning or preconceived principles or notions.
If nature holds such raw intelligence that seemingly is imprinted upon their cellular makeup which allows it to adapt, survive and thrive without fail, how could one assume that something or someone of greater significance, power, and foresight did not have anything to do with the creation of our intricate world?
Notice that those who have held a great purpose in the furthering of our world died shortly after their final and most prominent work was completed. Their reason for existing was completed and they knew it. They always do. Their lives are typically short and impactful, paving the way for the evolution of life to continue. They die because they have done what they were designed to do.
Only fools who lack will power and bravery cannot accept the possibility of a greater entity that aided in the existence of our world. People of true intelligence and understanding indeed accept all possibilities and are open-minded to all concepts that they are presented with. They humbly make peace with the anomaly of life and the fact that they do not have all the answers. Whoever makes peace with that, makes peace with the existence of a god.
