destiny
Necessity is the quality of being necessary, or the quality of that which can not but be, become, or be true, or be accepted as true. Need and want always imply a lack; necessity may be used in this sense, but in the higher philosophical sense necessity simply denotes the exclusion of any alternative either in thought or fact; righteousness is a necessity (not a need) of the divine nature. Need suggests the possibility of supplying the deficiency which want expresses; to speak of a person’s want of decision merely points out a weakness in his character; to say that he has need of decision implies that he can exercise or attain it. As applied to a deficiency, necessity is more imperative than need; a weary person is in need of rest; when rest becomes a necessity he has no choice but to stop work. An essential is something, as a quality, or element, that belongs to the essence of something else so as to be inseparable from it in its normal condition, or in any complete idea or statement of it. Compare NECESSARY; PREDESTINATION.
Synonyms:
compulsion, emergency, essential, exigency, extremity, fatality, fate, indispensability, indispensableness, necessity, need, requirement, requisite, sine qua non, unavoidableness, urgency, wantAntonyms:
choice, contingency, doubt, doubt, doubtfulness, dubiousness, fortuity, freedom, option, possibility, uncertaintyPreposition:
The necessity of surrender; a necessity for action; this is a necessity to me.

How to use «Destiny» in context?
Since the dawn of time, humans have wondered about their destiny. Even in our present day society, people continue to ponder life’s big questions: What happens after we die? Is there some grand plan or design in place for our lives?
The ancient Greeks believed in a predetermined destiny for every person, dictated by their individual character and actions in life. The philosophes, or «thinkers» of the 18th century, looked to reason and science to figure out destiny. Some believed that our fate was predetermined by our genes, while others believed that we were the architects of our own destinies.
