What is fate
                                                                            
Our fate may be written
Do we know what we’ll miss
How can we say we’re tempting it
When we don’t know what it is

When we meet someone in our youth
Is it fate that led us there
Another crosses our path in the future
Is that fate and do we dare

Is fate what comes to us easy
Without struggle or pain
Or is it what we make of it
And what our struggles will attain

Fate might will our struggles
To prepare us for something more
Perhaps to lead us somewhere
For no one knows what’s in store

For now and forever
Fate will create our destiny
We will try to mold it to our favor
But in the end
What will be
Will be

Kat~
I enjoyed this look at 'fate'.
I guess we can rearrange it ...
but can't really change it ?

'Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.'

Thanks Marge, I guess what I'm saying is that circumstances cross our path and it's how we handle those situations that determines our fate because that might have been our fate to begin with in the first place. I like the way you ended your response.

MysticalNights: Yes, what will be will be   and boy do I want it to be the way I'd like it to be. Thanks!

Julie:  Thanks, I'm glad you liked it alot

Kit:  I have a feeling alot of us think about the same things when it comes to fate. Is it fate that certain situations are thrust upon us and then it's up to us make things work to our favor or are our actions already written as part of our fate? Well, we'll never know for sure, but the question will always be there. Thanks!
