So tell me, if you "Do not have some level of control over your destiny" then how are you able to decide to slow down on icy roads?
I don't believe this has anything to do with destiny, it simply means I understand that driving like a lunatic on icy roads may end up in disaster. I just don't see that as destiny, I see it as common sense and I don't believe it's been decided by a higher power whether or not I'll crash.

Either I mis-phrased my original reply or it's been misread, I do believe I have a measure of control over what happens to me, I don't believe I'm doing as was planned out for me.

Now that I've reread my first reply it does sound somewhat like stereo instructions, my bad

its ok duke lol i figured out what you meant and explained it lol

he said "nor do i believe that i do not"

so to put it simply he believes he has control over his life not some mystical fate that controls things for us.
I do not believe that you're not right!!!
