Some don't really believe in it. Some do.
Some think you can go against it.
But how is that not following it? Perhaps it was fated.

The choices we make are irrelevant. They hold no ground on how things will happen
Because really, things will happen.
They might bring us to them,
Or they might push them away,
But it will happen.
It's inevitable.

Sometimes we see these choices, and we think how we'd never be in the situation where we'd have to choose
We like to remain optimistic.
We think, it might be bad if that choice came about.
That it only happens in stories
That it never would happen to us
But it does.
And when it does, it is bad.

Worse than we imagine.

But that is that. There isn't much to do other than accept what has happened and get by
Because the things that happen, happen
And we live and abide by the strings that bind us
Called fate.
Hold dear what we can
Because if we lose it, we lose it.

If we gain it, we gain it.

And if it happens, it happens.

Sometimes, what's good for some, is bad for others.
Actually, that's all of the time.
There is never a true win-win situation when things need balance.
And this needs balance.
And right now, it's unbalanced.
Heavily unbalanced.

So we'll lose.
Others will gain.
That's life.

Because the choices we make
Don't really shape what will happen
Because what will happen, will happen
And when it happens
We choose all we like
But it happens.
