A conflict within. [I Believe In Destiny]

I know this is gonna sound silly but these past few nights I've been having nightmares about my estranged ex-father. He walked out on me and my mom when I was 7 but recently, in my nightmares; he keeps telling me that I'm destined to become him and follow his lazy slob lifestyle. I try to run in the nightmares but he keeps chasing me.

When I wake up, I look in the mirror and see him, because with my ratty beard, I look just like him so I shaved it off..

But I just gotta ask. Is it possible to be destined to become your father? Because I always thought our destinies was our own.

That's your own fear of becoming like him. It ain't destiny or something else.

@Dancingxghost I know I'm definitely fearing it. But I've always been a big believer in destiny I always thought we were meant to follow someone to achieve our destiny

@RavenclawGamer well that's an odd statement..why would you need to follow someone else steps to achieve YOUR destiny? if it's your destiny then your path is predetermined which would mean even before you were your dad's son..the path was already there. So you wouldn't following his steps but the same route he took and you can change routes.
