Destiny by its meaning reveals what is allotted to an individual as a living plan before an individual gets to this world. Destiny is a religious concept that interprets whatever happens in life has, from timeless beginning predestined by the Creator to happen when mankind was in the spiritual realm before he could eventually meet himself in this vacuum universe.
