Lesson Three | Destiny | Open/Voice

[wiserthanusall]

For every day of life, there is a lesson to be learned. So many seem so bent on hurt and anger, and perhaps this is their destiny, but such things are like threads as yet unwoven. True, the pattern is set, but it is not too late to alter it.

Many meet their destinies on the path they take to avoid it.

Be mindful of your actions. Seek to avoid

You believe in fate, Master Oogway?

[wiserthanusall]

Well, I didn't say dat.

[betterthanraph]

Destiny, then. [Not that Leo thinks there's much of a difference.]

[wiserthanusall]

Ye~es... Dat is correct.

[Oogway senses your doubt, much to his amusement.]

Fate is the path we walk and the way to our destinies. However, if fate were a concept in reality, then our choice of road would mean nothing. However, each journey, no matter the route, would have no meaning without a necessary and a proper end for each of us.

I do not expect you to simply accept this, Leonardo. It took me many years to see that this was an enduring truth.

[betterthanraph]

[Okay, now if only he could understand what the enduring truth was. Did he say he believed in fate there, or that it wasn't real, or that destiny was something different?

GD it Oogway. Leo needs a flowchart for your conversations sometimes.] ...I guess I've got a ways to go, then.

[wiserthanusall]

[He really does laugh, this time.]

It is simple; you must let go of the illusion of control.

[betterthanraph]

[You hippie.] I see.
