Fate.

Do you believe in fate?

It's a strange concept that no-one will ever know the answer to. Maybe fate is just based on the choices we make. But if that is the case, then our lives are planned out, every minute of every day, everyone move and every choice we make is pre-planned. Maybe it's only the bigger picture that is fate, the lessons we learn and the ending of the story.

What's meant to be will be.

I like the idea of fate because it lets you look to the future with hope with the thoughts that if it hasn't happened now then it might happen in the future, and if it's meant to be then it will be.
I like the idea of fate because it lets me keep dreaming and hoping for something in the future that I should forget about because it would never happen to a girl like me.
A girl like me. The girl who is happy because everyone she loves is happy, and her life is okay, there's nothing particularly wrong. So I'm grateful because I know I'm lucky to have nothing wrong. Even if I don't that one extraordinary thing - or person. As long as they're happy, and as long as he's happy.

Fate, serendipity, destiny. All different words with similar meanings. How will be ever know if it's real? Now, someone telling me that we'll end up together because it's fate, it just has to happen. But I wonder if, in a couple of years time, we'll be saying that it's that a different couple are together (or should be).

Either way, I know the person that ideally I'd end up with. Maybe that's ridiculous. I don't know whether you feel it before you start the whole process, but I feel like this is different, special. Maybe I'm being over the top, getting way over my head, but I've not felt this way for someone, or had this relationship with someone before. Maybe that's my inexperience and just the way he is. But maybe there is something there that I'm not imagining. It's been this way for a long time, and although there might have been distractions along the way, it's been him and I can't see it stopping in a while. Not with the (frustrating, misleading, heartbreaking yet beautiful) hope that I have at the moment.

"The one". That's definitely all about fate, isn't it? So if you believe in the one then you believe in fate.
I believe that there are a few people in the world that a person could be very happy with their whole lives. Maybe there's one that would be "best" or "right", but there is a different person that it could work with too. I'd like to believ on "the one" but it seems so cliche and such a juvenile idea.

Sometimes I look at my past blogs and for a few of them, I forget why I wrote it. For each blog there is a reason I'm am writing about that topic, an event in my life that had me considering and wondering about the topic. I don't think I'll forget the reason for this one though.

I think I've written about fate before without actually realising it was fate. "Everything happens for a reason". I have always and still do believe this so therefore I must believe in fate. I don't know, must I? I like the idea of fate.

Although I'm not really sure what my conclusion to this blog is, I stand by what I've said before.
Everything happens for a reason.
And what's meant to be will be.

Do you believe in fate? I think I do.
