The chosen path

Life is already a chosen path. Laid out for you even before you were born. Arranged by higher forces. Which family to be born in. Which friends to play with you. Which field you should venture into. Which soulmate for you to keep. The ups and downs that comes your way. And eventually, how and when you should meet your end.

It's nothing you can change. Because the thing is, you don't even know what is being laid out. You walk through life everyday, taking one step at a time, not knowing what is in front. You turn back and realise that everything you ever did so far was the work of fate. Or destiny. Who could you thank? Who could you blame?

Often people used to wonder why isn't life the other way round? Why did it have to be this way? Why did it happened to her and not me? Why did it happened to me and not to him? Just how many whys out there that could be answered? You just got to accept that that's the way it was meant to be.

Certain people do feel dissatisfied. People rarely feel contented with what they have. They don't think they deserved it. They think they could be so much more better. Only certain circumstances do not allow them to do so. It's a waste. It's a pity that they couldn't take the opportunity in front of them. Not that they don't want to. Some just couldn't afford to do so.

It's just a matter on how you view life. To look into the blessings you received and be thankful for it. Or to dwell on your misfortunes and blame everyone for it. I would believe that what ever happens, happens for a reason. A window opens for every closed door. Are you sure you're looking in the right direction?
