i could answer this from a psychological pov but i dont think thats what you're looking for.

experience makes us who we are. i dont think our actiond are predetermined. i do believe in fate but i dont think its set in stone and i think there is more than one way to reach the final stop that fate has in mind for us.

fighting akwardness... i think if there was an answer to that one, highschool would have been a lot easier on a lot of people. stay true to you, i think thats the best bet. once you're comfortable with yourself, other situations dont seem as difficult.

and i'm always listening

hmmm.... a psychological answer might take a while gimme a little bit to work it out. b/c i do know the answers (psych major) but with all the shit going on right now i cant be bothered typing it out lol

according to some theories, our personality is decided by the time we are four years old.
things that happen in our early childhood supposedly shape us for life...
which decides what choices we make, and those choices lead to other choices, and its not that its predetermined so much as we start to follow a pattern. we can change that pattern if we become selfaware
shit i'm kinda rambling... i'll continue when its not 3:30 in the mornin lol

Well, I'm sure you knew I would have to weigh in on this :)

Our decisions and beliefs make us who we are.

Nothing is predetermined.

We judge people out of selfdefense. As unfair as that is.

The only way to fight awkwardness is to be understanding and open up.

I'm listening.

I would say more, but I think it would venture more into the philosophical than the psychological.
