Energy

 You are in control of your own destiny. It's not a predetermined path that the universe has planned out for you since the day of your birth but it is a choice that you continually make every second of every day. However, the universe does not ignore you. The universe is made up of massive amounts of energy and you take part in it. I'm a firm believer in you get back what you put out. So good things tend to come back to those people who are constantly putting out positive energy into the universe. So take control of your destiny. Even when you feel like your life isn't in your own hands, just put out that positive energy and see what happens. I'm willing to bet that the universe will send a little help your way when you least expect it. It might not take the form of what you want but you can believe it'll be exactly what you need.....
