The meaning of destiny

The Dance of Destiny

People can't challenge the sky, In the darkness, a fixed count does lie.

We meet, then part, and meet again, All guided by a higher, divine plan.

Fate's a puzzle we can't always decipher, Gathering and dispersing, it's best not to try any harder.

Because of destiny's design so clever, We cross paths amid the vast human river.

Obligations lead us over mountains and rivers grand, When fate is absent, we brush shoulders on the sand.

Without debts, we pass in a hurry, no need to explain, In this life, every encounter, part of destiny's chain.

Without fate, we'd never meet, Unpaid dues bring us to fate's seat.

Gratitude for every twist of fate, Cherish love, don't let it abate.

Whether we stay or turn away, In this journey or lifetime, we're here to stay.

Even if we part and never again unite, It's a cherished memory, still shining bright.

In this life, people you meet, Some offer warmth, a love so sweet.

Others depart, teaching lessons in sorrow, Hurtful encounters prepare you for tomorrow.

Those who harm, they teach you to defend, Hateful souls reveal what's indifference in the end.

Some people, merely lessons in disguise, Unmasking your foolishness, they make you wise.

Don't hate those who deceive or betray, Don't blame the ones who lead you astray.

Instead, if you must harbor hate, let it be so, Direct it toward the shallow fate's flow.

Blame not changeable feelings in your chest, In the grand scheme of life, they're just a test.

Like flowers, we bloom and gently fall, Fate's rhythm guides us, one and all.

For those without destiny's hand in their play, Don't grieve, let them go their own way.

Embrace those destined to be by your side, Cherish what's yours, don't let it slide.

If it's not meant to be, don't bother or pine, All's part of God's will, an intricate design.

Lucky to meet, that's what we say, Whether together or apart, it's the journey that holds sway.

No matter how it all eventually ends, With a heart full of gratitude, we part as friends.

Thank you for the encounters, for the stories we've spun, In this grand tapestry of life, we owe nothing to anyone.

Thank you for reading!
