Stimulating Conversation: Fate and Cycles!

So earlier today I was listening to something on YouTube and the guy brought up an interesting topic about there is a difference between #fate and #cycles. He did not go into great detail but it stayed with me for the entire day. I then brought up the topic to my other half trying to get a better understanding and the more we talked the more interesting things came up in our conversation. So this is how the conversation went:

Me: Babe , so I was listening to a guy on YouTube (like i stated before! lol) And he said something that just really hit home with me.

Him: And what was he talking about?

Me: Well, he was doing a general reading for Earth signs and the last bit he said was there is a different between fate and cycles and that's how he ended the reading.

Him: He left like a cliffhanger right??

Me: Yup he sure did!

Him: Mmmmm!

Me: So anyway, I wanted to get your #opinion about it and express my thoughts and see what you think. So when he said there is a difference between fate and cycles is that fate is something that is already destined to happen and with cycles it is about repeating patterns. Like fate we cannot run or hide from it no matter how we try and eventually we ended up being where we are suppose to be. When it comes to fate it feels like there has to be some sort of #progression that has to take place in our for fate to bring you closer to your #purpose. It's like when #God decides to bless you, He isn't going to #bless you with something that you are not ready for. He is going to wait for when it is time and when your fully ready for it. Whereas with cycles, the patterns are formed whether you are aware or conscious of it or not. It keeps repeating until you finally recognize what is really going on and in a sense "break the cycle." Even in cycles there is a progression but I feel like it is different in some kind of way. Maybe it has not came to me yet so I am going to think on that a little more. So what do you think? Does it make sense in what I said?

Him: mm mm I really do not know what to say and yes baby it makes sense what your saying. I am going to have to think about it a little more myself because when I think of fate-my mind goes into faith. ( He goes on to explain about his #experiences with fate and faith and how he has his own things to work on.)

So of course I went straight to the dictionary and re-read what the meanings of both words are to better my #understanding to a certain degree and threw in there patterns too!

Fate: the will or principle or determining cause by which things in general are believed to come to be as they are or events to happen as they do.

Cycles: a course or series of events or operations that recur regularly and usually lead back to the starting point.

Patterns: a natural or chance configuration; a reliable sample of traits, acts, tendencies, or other observable characteristics of a person, group, or institution.

So with that being said and done think about your own #conclusions when it comes to fate and cycles. Whatever you come up with is neither right or wrong but just a mere #observation. I know it gave me a different #perspective and a closer look on the things I deal with daily #mentally, #physically, #spiritually, and #emotionally. Always remember to #LiveLifePositive!
