Meant to do VS. Want to do
Every person is born with certain natural tendencies (things we are meant to do). According to these, our lives are shaped. We also conscientiously take certain paths on our own (things we want to do), these guide our lives as well. When our naturally given and conscientiously taken paths are of the same alignment, things seem to fall into place much easier.

This sounds a little like "nature" and "nurture," and yet it sounds like "nature PLUS nurture" (genetics PLUS environment) instead of genetics-VERSUS-environment, which is how we normally hear it. And I have to say I like the idea of "plus" as contrasted with "versus." Anyway, an interesting thought. I wonder how many people are so blessed as to be able to follow both paths?
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of "plus" as well. Unfortunately, I believe few ever discover both paths. That doesn't mean we should give up on trying...
