There have been a lot of opinions about human destiny. Here I express my own   
   analysis of why people are what they are , why they do what they want to do,   
   why they are forced to do what they really do not want to do, why they are   
   happy or sad, why they    
   are healthy or sick, hungry or have too much to eat and all other factors that   
   affect people. Now let me make it clear that I do not want to claim that I   
   understand every human condition but I am expressing what I have analyzed with   
   myself so far.   
      
   Let us get on to our subject, what is DESTINY? Some people will argue that   
   there is no such a thing as human destiny and that humans are creators of   
   their own destiny period. Now this theory is only true if all humans were in   
   equal physical, political,    
   mental, social and all other aspects of life. But humans are NOT in an equal   
   state in relation to each other and everything around them dictates or   
   controls their actions and behavior. As a result they ultimately fall victim   
   to either hard and dangerous    
   life situations despite their best effort to have good lives OR they are   
   blessed with wonderful life standards with little or no effort at all   
   undeservingly OR some people end up living somewhere in-between the above two   
   life scenarios (somewhat    
   wonderful life mixed with hardship and danger)   
   Under above theory, we reach to the conclusion that people can only control   
   their destiny within the limits of their own unique circumstances in   
   accordance with other above factors in their life. In fact, people's ultimate   
   current and future lives are    
   shaped by social, political, historical and other powerful forces beyond their   
   ability which can influence the final big picture in their lives. People might   
   be able to make some progress in steering the courses of their destiny up to a   
   certain small    
   extend but they cannot change the final outcome. Now the limits of how much   
   people can control their destiny are quite different. Some people can have a   
   lot of room in shaping their destiny; some have very little and some nothing   
   at all. It all depends    
   what the person or group of people they are, how much powerful forces around   
   them are favorable/unfavorable to them or what the are limit for their goals   
   and finally how complex their desires are and their resources at hand to   
   accomplish such desires.   
      
   For example, people CAN NOT do anything about the fact that they are born a   
   male or female and they are aging and finally they will die one day. This is   
   the basis of human destiny which is totally out of people's control   
      
   Then comes other factors in people’s lives that are not in their control but   
   can be influenced and they are ; where you are born, to whom you are born, how   
   much education your environment allowed you to have, your up-bringing and your   
   parents influence,   
    what kind of obstacles/leverage you face from your friends or foes, what kind   
   of believes guides your life, your mental and physical health condition,   
   cultural believes, geographical location, past history, your country's and   
   community's ability/   
   inability to protect and assist you in your quest and many other such factors   
   will determine the full extent of your personal achievements and thus its   
   maximum limits of your destiny. It is always believed that intelligent people   
   can have a better future    
   than morons but it is always not true. If the above outside factors are very   
   favorable to a moron, he could be placed as a president of a country but a   
   genius whose outside factors are not favorable to him can have a miserable   
   life or worse.   
      
   Based on the above explanation we can see that we do not have the ability to   
   completely change our destiny but we can only reach to our maximum limit of   
   what our destiny allows us to do considering the forces that are/are not in   
   our control and favor.    
   However we can greatly enhance our limits of success in our destiny if we   
   start to help each other in time of need and then make a group effort to   
   extend the limits of our destiny greater each generation better than the last   
   generation until we all have    
   the ability to extend our destiny’s limit to the universe and explore its   
   secrets and delights. This can be possible only if each capable person   
   fulfills his responsibilities towards his parents, children, extended family,   
   tribe, nation and world of    
   humanity in time of need. And that powerful nations stop all wars,   
   exploitations, greediness, racism and instead invest in human development   
   everywhere toward a bright destiny for all people of the earth collectively.   
   If such dreams come true then most    
   of the evils affecting people all over the earth will disappear and instead of   
   wasting their resources on wars and other evils, humans can use those   
   resources to make life better on earth and then start their quest of the   
   universe and continue their    
   physical/spiritual journey towards their collective FINAL DESTIN
