afford it or destiny?

life as we know it, there's not a thing that doesn't cost a thing. nothing is free. no such thing as free meal. you get my point right?

you're familiar with the barter system I assume. it seems like free, a win-win situation. yeah, of course since you don't have to cash out your money to get that item. but think about your items that you're exchanging. it surely costs you something to get it. even if you found it somewhere, it still isn't free. it costs you you're time and energy. you see, nothing is free. so don't expect to get something when you don't even care to move a limb for that thing you wanted. every effort counts. that's the total cost.

okay, now that's not really my point. this entry is about things you can't get. everything has its price tag. its own cost. you can work your ass off to match the price tag. but no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you sacrifice, no matter how ruthless you fight, if that one thing isn't destined for you, there will be no way you are gonna get it. okay, I do sound like a loser, a person who gave up easily, someone scared of the destiny. but let me tell you this. you can change your destiny if you really work for it and if God let it happened. God is fair. you can go to every bed of the seven seas to hunt the treasure you wanted but failed. maybe because God has put your treasure on the continents. because God has planned the best for you. I'm not telling you to give up. just telling you to try for what you dreamed and ask guidance from the Almighty.

so, yes. everything has a price tag on it. the issue is can you afford it and are you destined for it? nevertheless, don't give up easily. put in your efforts and if you can't get what you wanted, settle down with what you're destined for. that will be better.
