Whether or not you believe in Fate comes down to one thing: who you blame when something goes wrong. Do you think it’s your fault—that if you’d tried better, or worked harder, it wouldn’t have happened? Or do you just chalk it up to circumstance?
This quote really made me think. I’ve always believed in fate and destiny, but I also believe we’re responsible for our choices. The way this line frames fate—as a question of who you blame when things go wrong—almost changed my mind. It made me realize I might not believe in fate after all, but in the idea that most of what happens in our lives comes from our own actions and decisions.
