Does fate comes with a remote control? I wish. But it will no longer be called fate if that’s the case. Fate is an inevitable and often adverse outcome, condition or end. It’s unavoidable. Either we can thank fate for some good things that comes in our way or we can just put the blame on it and rest our case during some unfortunate circumstances. It’s one of the many mysterious words in life that men can’t have power over. That’s how fate was described by Mr. Webster.
Nowadays, people are starting to think differently about fate. One good example is “The Secret” that has a book and a documentary film that tells how we can get something we really desire. I’ve watched the film and it was really inspiring. But on a different note, it can be quite fictional. I know for a fact that if we really want something, we should do everything that is necessary in order to achieve it. Attracting the universe in order to let all the things we planned go as it is. But seriously, how do we really make this happen? Should we have to rely on what the book/film etc. is telling us in order to control our fate? Then if that’s the case then we’re already defying fate itself rather than controlling it right? This is just my two cents, the more we keep this mind set of being positive and expecting that it will be rewarded in the end is treacherous once fate comes back with a bad outcome.
I still believe that everything happens for a reason. I compare the entity of fate like the way I believe in God or love. It moves in mysterious ways. The more we try to think that we can control it, the more we will just complicate our lives. And again, just like God or love, if things didn’t happen the way you want it to be, then it might be a sign or a way for you to find time to realize and have some good assessment to yourself. Rise some constructive feedbacks why fate didn’t let you get what you want. Either you really don’t deserve it, or it wasn’t really meant for you and there’s something or someone that is more suitable for you. Putting a 100% positive mindset isn’t healthy as well as this will just cloud all the negative things that you will encounter that might help you to grow as a human being. Instead of making yourself believe that you can control fate, why not just let it be as your guidance. And I guess that’s more real and reasonable to consider than thinking that you have this ability that you can control the universe.
