Life: Could we rely on fate alone?

Everything that happens in our life is a product of what we do to our life.  We start building the ladder of our life once we are old enough to distinguish between the right and the wrong.  I believe in fate as the main ingredient to a man’s success but I also believe in the saying,  ”Life is what you make it.”  A man truly creates his life and should not rely too much on fate.

There are many factors that affect man’s life.  These different factors either make you or unmake you.  The situation depends on whether you have grabbed the correct reign to man the horse or you have missed it.  Of course, in that case you couldn’t possibly lead the horse to the right trail if you have missed the reigns.  This will apply to our life because it is what we do that is crucial in what happens to us in the future.

Life is unpredictable.  Sometimes the person whom you think cannot succeed will suddenly become the most successful businessman in your place.  Without even noticing what had really happened the person whom everybody had pinpointed as the useless and most unwanted person will turn out as the best person in the future.  Sometimes the turn of the wheel is just so confusing that people find themselves confused and not being able to cope with what life provides.

People choose what they do and they choose what could happen to them in the future.  If we are going to look at what life really is, we begin to analyze what we have done wrong in the past that made us where we are today.  We cannot really tell what is going to happen in the future and what we all want to avoid is a mistake that goes on and on until the person who made the mistake does not come out of the quagmire he has built around him.

Mistakes do happen in everybody’s life but making the same mistake over and over in your life is not at all proper for a person who has a sound mind.  Unless you want to ruin your life, you can always repeat the same mistake you have done in the past.  But if you are concerned about what will happen to you in the future, perhaps committing one mistake is enough to enlighten your mind.

A person who commits the same mistake throughout his life is trying to test what life is all about.  Not thinking of the consequences that the mistake could do to him in the future and not considering the future.

Whether we like it or not, fate sometimes make an abrupt turnaround which will make us either lost our balance or it could throw us away so far that we cannot grasp anything to hold on to.  For those people who have done good things in their life and have planned their future ahead in their younger years, they are the people who have a smooth sailing boat.   But for those people who have thought luck is always on their side, it would be a sorry state for them.

There is no limit to what a person could do but if it is already too much, things will turn out bad.  Planning our life and doing what is right is still the best thing for all of us to do if we truly want a peaceful and happy life.
