About fate,

Whenever something happens, and people want to believe in fate/destiny, they twist their reasoning around to make it seem that way.

If it's a bad experience, most people think "It must've been destiny for me to experience this so I can learn a lesson."
If it's a good experience, people can think "This path must have been meant for me since it was so lucky."

I think people look at the consequence, and call that fate.
Stuck in a loop that basically says "Something happens, therefore it's fate."


Same with a lot of religious people, including my close friend, who say "It was a test from God." If a baby dies or a family gets murdered or if anything horrible happens.
Then if something good happens "Oh, it was a blessing from God."
Another loop that basically means "Something happened, therefore a God exists."

Open your eyes and stop putting yourself in this pointless loops of childish, close minded ideas.
