Doe s aperson really have power over its destiny?

Dear bloggers,

It has long been a question that has consumed my brain cells over the past number of years. Is it possible for your standard Jane or John Doe to take control over their fate or destiny? Do the rich have that right while the impoverished succumb to just that - poverty?

Can humans break free from mental diseases that hold them at ransom? Are the rich blessed with freedom of choice while the poor are forced to accept a harsh reality that offers no escape? Living in a world where the rich are definitely getting richer while the poor are becoming angrier and more violent, where can one practice inner peace with conviction?
