Fate...Maybe Things Work Out Better Without It
"Oh my god, meeting you was like Fate!"
"The Fate of the world is in your hands...your Fate is to save ours"
So you always see in the movies that Fate has a way of budding its head in every Hollywood storyline. Whether its a love story and the two main characters were destined to be together, or if a hero is suppose to save the day. It was all fate...
I am a firm believer in Fate. Maybe it was because I watched a lot of T.V. and saw so many movies, so I believe that the world behind the silver screen is an exact mirror of the life that we live in. SOme things you just want to be true. I probably have been brainwashed to believe in things that can and will only happen in movies...fairy tale endings, everything will be all right in the end after a 2 hour time span; jedis, hobbits, and the matrix are real. I've been sucked into a world where everything will just be better and fixed...a place where everything can just be left up to Fate.
It's a good world to live in, if it were true...life isn't so easy. It isn't just "whatever happens is not in my control." Because it basically is in your control. And it seems to be that life seems to go better when you just let it happen.
I found out, at least for me, that things just tend to go better when you are just careless and do not think and delve into it. I tend to think and believe that it was Fate that I met a few people...the pieces just seem to fit together...but I am probably just thinking too much into it. I am not taking into consideration coincidence and sheer luck...for me, everytime I think something was Fate, my theory about it being Fate just comes crashing down. And then I realize...mybe it wasn't, but then why does everything just seem to go togheter?
I don't remember everything that I thought was "suppose to be" because of Fate, but the two recent ones I do remember are with two girls that I liked. I know it seems pretty stupid, but I just thought that we were suppose to be together due to Fate...I totally disregarded important factors like dumb luck, coincidence, and oh yea....the fact that they have to like me back...I just assumed that Fate would just work its magic and *POOF* Boy, how wrong am I.
My first work crush was when I thought that Fate worked overtime to help me out. It was just a regular day at work at the movie theaters...well not a regular day...it was friggin busy because it was Christmas and everything else was closed, so we were working hard. I was almost off and went on break, when all of a sudden a black out occured. So it was getting really chaotic and we were trying to regain order and stuff. Well I was an Usher at the time, so I didn't have the chance to meet the new Concessionists and Box Girls. Well, during the blackout, I met a new Concessionist, and it was just whatevers...I probably would have met her eventually. We just introduced ourselves to eachother and had small talk, nothing big. After everything was done and settled and the lights came back on, my shift was pretty much over...so was hers. I take my friend home since she lives by me, and we were suppose to pretty much get off at the same time. But due to the blackout, she had to work a little longer. And as I was getting off to wait for my friend to get off, I saw her sitting down, by herself. Since I had a pretty long wait, I decided to sit down and get to know her better, so I did. She was pretty cool and everything...and after we talked for a few hours she had to go and watch a movie with her friend, and my friend got off around the same time. There's more to the story that follows, but on this one day, it just seemed like everything went together. Like if it wasn't for the blackout, I wouldn't have met her, and if I didn't meet her I wouldn't have hung out with her after work, because I wouldn't know who she was. It was also weird how if the blackout didn't happen, then my friend wouldn't have stayed longer at work, so I probably would have left and not talk to her as well. And at the end, my friend was off the same time that she had to go catch her movie...as it turns out...my theory about it being Fate...didn't work out.
Fate incident #2 was with my other crush at the movie theater. We hung out and everything, but with this girl, we lost contact. I had no way of contacting her, and she had no way of contacting me, so that was basically it. A few months passed and I was getting over her, until I got a phone call from my friend telling me that she had her phone number. As she told me how she got it, my mind was at work thinking about what had happened. And as I called her, she told me what happened and why she never called me. If this sounds familiar to you faithful readers, that is because this was on my previous blog. And I just thought that it had to be Fate and not dumb luck which was what this probably was. I mean we lost contact with eachother, and I don't see or talk with her for a few months...I wasn't at the theater anymore, and when she went to pick up her last check she gave an assistant manager her number to give to me, but I wasn't there, so I never got it. Another coworker who wasnt there anymore found another job at Cinnabon at the Santa Anita Mall. Well lo and behold on Thanksgiving break, she takes her little sister to the Santa Anita Mall and she wants a Cinnabon, so they go get one. My coworker is new and is training and she recognizes him because we all went out together before in the summer. So she give him her number to give to me. Now what are the chances of that happening? Her to go to the mall on a day that my coworker who barely got that job was training...her sister wanting a Cinnabon and them getting one on my coworkers shift...like I said it was either Fate or just dumb luck..i chose Fate...and again I get kicked in the gnads.
So my conclusion is that Fate doesn't exist...or if it does, it just doesn't work for me. I think things will be a lot better when I don't over analyze things and hope that it was a work of the heavens, meant to be...destiny. Cuz you know sometimes shit happens...good and bad, and looking back on it, things that were just spontaneous and unplanned by Fate tended to be better...it was just life.
