Daring Adventure

I don't quite understand the quote. I think the quote is saying that we can change our lives and our lives are not controlled by anything or anyone. I think the quote is suggesting that the will of the people are stronger than what events are predestined to be and that we can either do something that can change our lives or follow the chains of cause and effect. A "daring adventure" is what shape our life and is what break the chain of boringness. I believe there is no such thing called fate because I believe that our lives are filled with events that we have the ability to change. Although many scientific reports have shown studies and experiments that test whether our decisions are made by us or it is predestined by our body before we know the decision. One experiment I know of is where a person is seated and there are sensors connected to his brains. The scientist asks him to pound the table on the count of three and he could either choose to pound it with the right hand or the left hand. We would think that he has the ability and will power to choose which hand to pound the table with. However, the result is that the brain transmitted a signal to the right hand for the hand to be prepared for the pound before the count to three. This experiment left us to think that whether our environment and previous events already shaped what we are going to do for the rest of our lives and whether we really have control over our decisions.
