I completely almost forgot to do this. :P
"We are the makers of our own destiny."
I would certainly have to agree with this statement. I think we are all divinely given a free will with which we are able to make our own decisions. Yes, I believe there is a higher being that guides our decisions and ultimately will decide how we end up, but I look life as an umbrella of sorts. The big man gives us the instructions of how we are to live on earth, and under his umbrella command, we have the ability to use our free will to act from that. In the end, it is our own decisions that take us to our destination. And we are the ones that will ultimately decide what path we choose to take.
"If you reach your goal, the end always justifies the means."
[I feel like i'm always playing the devil's advocate in our class discussions. :P] I'd have to agree with this statement as well. I don't think it matters what your goal is, if you reach it shouldn't you be satisfied? It kind of depends how you choose to take this statement. If you consider it from the point of view of an outsider, then no...you may not think the end justified the means. But on a personal level, if you reach YOUR goal, YOUR end should feel justified. It shouldn't matter what the others think or believe.
That's just what I think.
:]
Gracias.
