I was talking to a friend yesterday about his passion for the book he is currently reading, You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L. Hay. Seeing as that is what I’m trying to do, I am very appreciative of the suggestion.

We got around to talking about destiny and free will and I felt like I was finally able to articulate how I feel about the two.

I think they are one in the same and we are walking in both through our lives. I think that we have a destiny and I think we have the free will to follow our heart and if we truly listen to our hearts, they will let us make the choices that lead us to our destiny.

I think I was supposed to get hurt so I could leave certain negative situations I was too weak to walk away from and because I knew there were answers I wanted to find about nutrition and health and if I hadn’t been pushed to find them, I would have ignored a piece of myself that is very real. I’ve learned so many other things since getting hurt that are invaluable. I’m still learning and even when I’m better, I’ll be learning. Each day is adventure! The days can seem negative or positive, but I think all the decisions I make lead me toward something so much bigger than I am, something beautiful, and so they, in turn, are party of the beauty as well.
