What does that really mean?
It's always said by people who feel that they are connected straight to god.

It's the scarcity of self-determination that confuses me. It sounds like no matter what we do, it won't make a difference because god already has everything planned out. 

I think that sometimes, things just happens.
I don't know if things happen for a reason or not. I think when things happen, it's up to us to find the meaning.

&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;There may be days&lt;br /&gt;when you get up in the morning&lt;br /&gt;and things aren't the way&lt;br /&gt;you had hoped they would be.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;That's when you have to&lt;br /&gt;tell yourself that things will get better.&lt;br /&gt;There are times when people&lt;br /&gt;disappoint you and let you down.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;But those are the times&lt;br /&gt;when you must remind yourself&lt;br /&gt;to trust your own judgments and opinions,&lt;br /&gt;to keep your life focused on believing in yourself.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;There will be challenges to face&lt;br /&gt;and changes to make in your life,&lt;br /&gt;and it is up to you to accept them.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Constantly keep yourself headed&lt;br /&gt;in the right direction for you.&lt;br /&gt;It may not be easy at times,&lt;br /&gt;but in those times of struggle&lt;br /&gt;you will find a stronger sense of who you are.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;So when he days come that are filled&lt;br /&gt;with frustration and unexpected responsibilities,&lt;br /&gt;remember to believe in yourself&lt;br /&gt;and all you want your life to be.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" color=#000066 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Because the challenges and changes&lt;br /&gt;will only help you to find the goals&lt;br /&gt;that you know are meant to come true for you.&lt;br /&gt;Keep believing in yourself and&lt;br /&gt;Never give up!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=445696" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>MAKING IT HAPPEN </title><link>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/UserBlogPosts/Morrisa38/MAKING-IT-HAPPEN/429117.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 15 Dec 2008 22:50:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8ca05964-da1c-4176-9dbc-9d0bc609bb83:429117</guid><dc:creator>Morrisa38</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/comments/429117.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/commentrss.aspx?PostID=429117</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" color=#000080 size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;There are times in our lives when all the signs seem to be pointing us in a particular direction. Our thoughts and dreams are echoed in the songs and stories we hear and the media we see. Maybe the message we are getting from the universe doesn't even make sense in the "real" world, but somewhere inside, these urges feel right. Maybe you feel you are being told to move to a new city although your life where you are is just fine. Or maybe you feel the desire to pursue a new direction in your career when it never really interested you before. When we spend time getting in touch with our higher selves, our intuition sends us directives to lead us to become our best and most fulfilled selves. And when we are open and listening, the next step is to take action and go for it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once we make the decision to pursue our inner urgings, the universe sets into motion the means for all sorts of details to fall into place. A sense of peace will come over us, because we know that any questions will no longer make us wonder if our dreams are possible, but how to make them happen. Instead of deterring us from our goal, these questions only serve to clarify our focus to move us forward. We need not throw caution to the wind to follow our dream. The positive shift in our energy affects everything around us. Like a rush of water, it goes ahead to clear debris from our path so that we can go forward. Our new attitude also attracts likeminded people. Sometimes even the most unlikely angels arrive to help us along our way with the information and support we need. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wherever your dreams are pointing you today, take a step. Take action and manifest your inner urges and soul whisperings.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=429117" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>Not always easy</title><link>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/UserBlogPosts/Morrisa38/Not-always-easy/428760.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2008 09:19:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8ca05964-da1c-4176-9dbc-9d0bc609bb83:428760</guid><dc:creator>Morrisa38</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/comments/428760.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/commentrss.aspx?PostID=428760</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" color=#000080 size=5&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Some of our goals and dreams come to fruition so easily that it is as if an unseen hand has done much of the work for us. When this happens, we say it must have been meant to be. On the other hand, when dreams and goals require a tremendous amount of effort, we may interpret this to mean that our dream is not meant to be. However, difficulty is not necessarily a sign that our hopes and plans are ill-fated. On the contrary, difficulties and challenges along the path can be important parts of the project's overall meaning. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" color=#000080 size=5&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;When everything goes smoothly, we feel blessed by the universe, as if a fleet of angels is guiding and supporting our every move. When things are rough or ambiguous, we sometimes feel that we have been abandoned. And yet, the truth is that we are blessed in both cases. Our angels and guides are always present. They may choose at times to back off and let us figure something out for ourselves, and this is when things seem difficult. But when things are difficult, we learn and grow in specific ways. There is a unique satisfaction that comes to us when we succeed at something that has been a challenge. Our sense of self-reliance expands, and our ability to endure and keep the faith is stronger for having been tested. We learn that we are capable of confronting and overcoming the obstacles in our path, and this empowers us to dream still bigger dreams, knowing that we will not be daunted by the challenges inherent in birthing them. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" color=#000080 size=5&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;When we find ourselves facing difficulties with a particular plan or project, the chances are we know already whether we are meant to continue on or let it go. We simply need to look within ourselves for the answer. When an idea is meant to be, it comes back to us time and time again. Then we know we can go forward, no matter what challenges arise, knowing that it is meant to be.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=428760" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>Many hurts</title><link>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/UserBlogPosts/Morrisa38/Many-hurts/207913.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 19 Aug 2007 22:31:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8ca05964-da1c-4176-9dbc-9d0bc609bb83:207913</guid><dc:creator>Morrisa38</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/comments/207913.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/13226061/commentrss.aspx?PostID=207913</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face=Georgia color=#ff1493&gt;Hi my name is Jodie and I have been a empath psychic for many years, some of you know me and some do not.

His name is Brandon and within a 2 weeks period he went from the most respectful child of 17 to someone I never knew at all. And no it is not drugs we have had that all checked out. So if you can just keep us in your thoughts. thank you again to all of you who have asked about me and where I am .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=207913" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
