When inspiration meets destiny..

This intersection can be found in Wilmington, NC, USA. I was amazed when I saw this image. Hopefully the street names able to give positive impacts on the people living in the city. I can imagine that when someone asks you where you're going, you can answer like this:
"I'm going somewhere down the road on the Destiny Way"
or
"I'm driving along in the Inspiration Drive"
This intersection makes me wonder about the definition of Destiny. One source stated that destiny keeps a unique place in every life. It is said to be the powerful belief which we can neither weigh in balance nor test in any laboratory. It is not only a superstition. It has also a strong psychological basis. Another source defined destiny as a predetermined course of events. While making this posting I was also thinking about the relationship between destiny and inspiration. Can we say that if we are able to find great inspiration that can guide us to the right path of our life, we will be able to shape and meet our destiny. What will happen if inspiration meets destiny? I believe that many people search for the meaning and purpose of life. In search of their finding, many people seek for inspiration to enable them to find the true meaning of what they want to search. Once they have great inspiration and hold on to it, I can say that the inspiration will lead them to the path to their destiny. I found this quote that might explain destiny and decisions:
"Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved." -William Jennings Bryan
I agree with this quote. Once we've made our decision, we will be able to go along the way to meet our destiny. Who know we might even re-write our destiny by making it to be a better destiny for us. It's just my thought. What do you think?

Of course each one of us has courage..it's within you but some people are still too afraid to open it up..be brave and just do it..take a chance=)

I completely agree that we shape our own destinies. Inspiration creates ideas, ideas lead to planning and planning leads to destiny. Oh, yes! Courage plays a huge role, courage and confidence. Being able to overcome the self-doubt, and lack of confidence was the only way I could be open to inspiration, which is leading to my chosen destiny! But who know what's really on the horizon right? Only good things as far as I'm concerned!
