Before writing another word…I want to define FATE……
- the power supposed to determine the outcome of events before they occur; destiny…something inevitable…what happens or has happened to a person or entity…final outcome…The supposed force, principle, or power that predetermined events.…The inevitable events predestined by this force….A final result or consequence; an outcome.
How often does life go in a certain direction and we chalk it up to fate???….We take on the belief that…there was nothing we could have done to change the outcome….Some might even call it God’s will…or…luck ….Don’t we all…have times when we…feel we have no control over our life???…Is it possible to change our attitude???…Have you ever decided to …for example .. look at an event in your life…and instead of seeing the negative… focus instead…on the positive and in so doing …your thinking about it changed??…How much of our day is ruled by fate and how much by attitude???
So this all got me thinking….if we can’t change our fate…and we have not been happy about how things have gone….we might try…changing our attitude….But …don’t you think that changing our attitude…might possibly….change our “FATE”????…If we change the way we look at and react to life….will our life…possibly change as well???

So for example…if we are in a car accident and our fender gets mangled…..we can get mad and upset…or…have a different…attitude …that of being grateful that we were not hurt…Our attitude will not change the look of the dented fender…however…it could change how we feel …for the hours that follow…so…isn’t attitude changing …fate changing as well???…
Could it be that we call it fate…when we just don’t have the energy…to think differently??… Could it be that we say it was ….inevitable…because we did not know what else we could do ….to change things???…or…Could it be that we just like to call it fate…because we just don’t want to take any responsibility…for…our life’s path??
Fate…do you control it …or…. does it control you???
