Our fate is known and there for all of us to endure.
My Fate by D.E.Z. Butler Began at birth it did. Every good thing, all the bad things were given because I needed them. My fate has given me the will to succeed. All the wrongs and rights were there to teach me and bring me closer to my fate. When faced with pain and suffering the healing feels so much better and allows me to be closer to my fate. The long cries, the effervescing due diligence toward longings, the hurts were there for me to learn how to learn, still on my journey toward my fate. Now and then I smile strong, my face looks long and hard to see the chills, the frost that comes with knowing everything I did was drawn somewhere to bring me closer to my fate. A fate so etched in heaven that no one can change it. For my fate is there everyday I wake, and I always know what right, what wrong goes on that is indeed my fate.

Thank you The Lily of Lough Neagh, and Ronald Hull, and Richard Cederberg. Our fates came together here so I, must once again know
my fate is alive in the minds of others.

We are all a product of fate. But above and beyond that, we can affect our future by the choices we make. The worst thing we can do is to let things happen and then blame it on fate. As your opponent eloquently describes, we are in charge of our own fate.

Most dictionaries define fate as an event, or course of events, that will inevitably happen in the future, or your overall circumstances or condition in life. But if you journey towards your fate as you postulate, then you are invariably living IN your fate; something I believe to be true. Consider each moment is ahead of the last and behind the next. In other words: the future is the now is the future. This making fate not so much a destination as an environment our freewill and circumstance (or the ripples that others create around us) has created that we continually flow through; the here and now of existence. I don't believe our fate is circumscribed or predetermined. I will not belabor this. Your insight certainly has philosophical (and some spiritual) merit, (kudos) and could be discussed ad infinitum. I enjoy anything that stimulates the synapses, truly!

Consider, if you will, a group of people in a circle around the same tree holding hands. Each person sees, or perceives, a different part of the same reality, (the tree) and the only way you can get a more exhaustive understanding (of its totality) is to change places with someone. I enjoyed your thoughts. peace to you ... richard
