Is everything in life pre destined? So if we make a mistake and make life very hard for ourselves. Is this deliberate? Mistakes hurt other people as well as us. So does this mean our fate is connected to the fate of others. The actions of others affect us to. How does this interweaving of lives work in pre destiny?

Hello Ruby,
There are many views on this. My personal view is that our spirit decides what we want to learn from this life beforehand. As such, we are in control of what takes place (whether we believe that or not). We have the ability to create anything and everything because we are spiritual beings so we are not therefore stuck with whatever we decided before we were 'born'.
I do believe that all beings are connected via the one true light (God, Love etc). As such, everything we do affects the collective as a whole. Since we have the ability to create our own reality however, others around us also have the ability to create theirs.

Good question, Ruby and one that makes you think. I believe (as Rose does)that we choose the lesson to be learned in this incarnation  but...we were given the gift of free will (I think that is the same thing, tepet) and we each write our own story...we may change it at any time to suit what we need. Once we return to spirit, we will go over what we chose, what we did to learn it, and if we really did learn what we set out to...for the evolement of our soul. Something to contemplate, isn't it, and when we do, it may help us to stop and think before we act. Love and Light jennylynn |

Hi Ruby: it is my belief that free will is a gift from God (Source, the One, whatever you believe HIm/Her to be This is a most precious gift, but a responsibility too, don't you think? We write our own story here in this physical plane, so can change it as we will, but hopefully what we "write" and act out, brings us back to the lessons to be learned (our path) As I said, this is my belief...perhaps others may see things in a different way. Take what resonates with you..from the many viewpoints, and leave the rest...your path is up to you. Love and Light jennylynn |

Free will comes from the Isness, or god who doesn't care what we do...IMHO
