    New one: coincidence vs fate

    @LifeSXN

    A lot of people say that everything happens for a reasons, and coincidence doesn't excist. How do you feel about it? Do you believe in fate ?

    Also did u ever experience a situation where you thought this can't be a coincidence?

    I'm always trying to tell the truth when it comes to very serious things and also want to be told the truth. For any other occasion, sometimes it's better to not say anything at all. For example: One of my friends started doing TikToks and posted them on her instagram story. I thought It would be my duty as a friend to tell her that her TikToks makes everyone feel second hand embarassment. She started crying and is still mad at me so in hindsight I should have just shut my mouth.

    Every once in awhile I MIGHT be more willing to say a situation is fate, but I think pretty much everything is just a coincidence. I guess for some people life is more exciting when you think the events are apart of a larger plan

    Definitely.

    The second part ; depends on the person or situation at hand... it’s a tricky one.

    I’d 100% rather be well informed rather than lied too, you can’t change bad habits etc if you think those bad habits are actually good lol. But Yh, can be different answers for different situations for sure... me personally I would rather be told the truth.

    Time for a new question:

    How are you doing? No specific question, but all things considered in your life.

    It has been a weird 1.5 years for all of us, which was worse for some people more than others. And ofc its different how people can handle things.

    Aight, lets get this back to life
    We had one before, starting a new one now.
    Basically, this thread is meant to discuss all things life, mostly everyday things or questions. No matter what topic. (Personally I rather keep politics out of it but yeah)

    First topic: how (well) can you handle the truth? To be more specific; do you think its more important telling or knowing the truth, even if knowing it makes u feel like s---? Or do you believe sometimes its better now knowing?

    I know the answer to this can be different given the situation, but in general, how do you feel about this ?

    Word, brother. One of the main reasons I find it hard to believe in a god (a loving one at least) is all the f----- up s--- that happens to people who don’t deserve it.

    True, plus the fact (this is deep s---) that... why bad things happen to good people? What reason could there be behind someone young dying of illness or because some criminal needed cash.

    Good point. Something I can’t stand is people who say “it’s god’s plan” for the most minor things. I always found it weird that creationists think an all-knowing supreme being would give a s--- about them enough to meddle in their daily life.

    I get what you're saying, it could give people comfort.

    On the other hand though; if you think everything happens for a reason / is set in stone, it could also give you the feeling that nothing you do really matters. Pretty boring and depressing thought tbh lol. Being able to make your own choices / decide your own fate seems more 'exciting' than a larger plan. Its also more a scary thought maybe, but still.

    Use your head and discretion. It's a pretty specific question that can veer one way or another given the context. I always err towards honesty and truth, but know how to deliver it to people you know or strangers otherwise it can strain your relationship with anyone.

    Yeah I think there (for me) lies a big difference. Bad habits its something u can change, so I rather have people tell me. Then I can still choose not to change but at least u have a choice.

    But when it comes to situations u can't change, and it only makes u or others feel bad, is it always wise to tell or know the truth?
