Chance or choice

I read somewhere that destiny is more a matter of chance than a matter of choice. At that time i believed it was complete crap. Something that was better said by people who wanted to live a life of convenience and the ones who were in the usual habit of blaming it on destiny.

But as years moved by and after i had made a few very significant decisions of my life(i dunno if 'I' made them...not sure) i realised that the above aphorism was true. Time had revealed to me that all that we do in life does become our destiny but it may not always be our choice. Or it may be that things fall into our way in such a way that it becomes our choice to choose what we choose!

Well that did make me envy those who proudly declared that they made their own destiny because if you would happen to ask them the details it would sound that they really are the ones who made their destiny.
Hmmm...but all said and done. Their things are for them and they have nothing to do with me as all of us have our own lives to live and our own circumstances to endear.And its also that all of us have to hold the responsibility of all that we do in life or even think of doing. At the end of the day what i do, whether by chance or by choice, is something that is meant to happen to me and so it happens. And when i think of all this the confusion between chance of choice becomes totally redundant!isin't it?
