You Choose Your Destiny

I feel that LeAlan and Lloyd's community effected them in a positive way when it came time for them to make the decision where to live. Since they live in the community where they live they saw the negative side of living as well as the positive. They saw how bad some neighborhoods can be and what to look for when finding the perfect neighborhood to live with their families. Their neighborhood also taught them what to look for when finding that special person, how to be good fathers, and what to tell their children because all of the negative and positive people and experiences they had in the Ida Bees.
I believe that a person chooses their destiny and not the place where they were raised. I do believe that their community can influence their decision but I believe that if they want to change their living environment and if they want to be a better person than the people they encountered in the Ida Bees that they will make the right decisions and they will make the right choices so that they will choose the right paths in the end.

Brittany,
Is your understanding of destiny related to faith? In approaching this topic, do you then believe that nature is more defining than nurture for us? I think that you are in the beginning of finding a strong viewpoint that leans one way more than the other.

My understanding of destiny is related to faith. I believe that your destiny is determined by the way you live in your lifetime and the decisions that you make be it right or wrong. I believe that these two young men can learn so much about themselves and choose the way they live their lives from the environment that they grew up in. I believe that their destiny is determined by the decisions they make and the lessons they learn from their community
