Fate and Faith
"He is half part of a blessed man,
Yet to be finished by such a she...
She is a fair divided excellence,
whose fullness of perfection lies in him."
- William Shakespear
I think this is beautiful. There is nothing like embracing the air of what people want to say, allowing the full blast of emotion into our blood. In these words of what Shakespear had said, there is a sense of eternity. Fate had brought 2 people together. This is in relation to the romantic side of fate. And I believe, that there will always be 2 people in this world, fated to meet, and some will progress further…coz they were fated for one another.
I feel that fate, is of time. Because only time will tell. But does each and everyone of us have our own destiny and prophecies to full fill? What's mine? What's yours? and who in this world told you that things must be done a certain way or that you were meant to do certain things? Or that you'll never find romance? Or you'll never be able to do what you dream? There are options, and there will always be options. That means we, have choices. The freedom of choice. It's weather we pursue, or we overlook. But still, only time will tell.
Do you stand by the side when you see someone in need of help?...Has it degraded to such a case whereby the government has to stand up and actually have a campaign for such acts? - the 'one deed one lifetime', Paying it forward...and i bet, some wise guy had this idea of adopting the campaign after watching the movie... Not that the idea's bad, in fact some charity probably benefited from it...but doesn't it take fate to actually allow you to meet someone you can help? And when that time comes, its time to make your choice.
Today's world is such that economics run everything. Yes, everything. Personally, I am disgusted by it. Other than the small fact that Chelsea is trying to buy the premiership crown with Mr. Abramovich’s Billions without actually considering any financial shortfalls…(not that I actually approve of it)…but we can see from this example, 2 sides of the story. 1st, Having financial supremacy is of coz a wonderful thing. U can make many people happy, or sad. Which is probably why many have dug in towards this path… 2nd, the spirit of achieving a dream, a goal or simply to help to the best of our ability, be it a game or an ambition, even to the extent of knowing failure is ahead…is amiable. And this spirit, should at least take some precedence over everyday life in everyone. A little courage and kindness. The rest of society is purely ran by the formula of economics. Of course, don’t take it personally, but wealth is not necessarily everything. But it is importantly essential. Even in religious organizations these days. At least that’s how I see it working.
Fate is one thing, Faith another. But how they are so intimately intertwined is excruciatingly intricate. Fate is what will happen, the future, the next step in time. And faith, the belief and believe. The present, that will lead you that future. So, In my own observation and thoughts, I have come to believe that these 2 cannot be separated. Because the former is an onset of the latter. Fate cannot exist without faith. People from different schools of thought may differ, but to me what’s important is that we have faith in something. Faith in our future, faith in our family, faith in someone…anything and maybe even blind faith, the faith of GOD. Only when we can start to have faith, can we truly appreciate our fate.
No one knows what God has planned for us. But what we do know, is living each day to the best of our ability and our hearts. Of coz it would be nice to have that special someone around... But it's God's plan, we can only ask for his guidance and help, and as we all know, it will take faith. Because, like what a close friend told me long ago...faith is believing in what you cannot see, the reward of faith, is seeing what you believe. And I believed him.
The lives of many differ. But what has given the weak strength, is their faith, and who are those who have lost their own feet... allowing their blooming pessimism to grow?....those who have lost faith in themselves and the people around them. And that is why they do not appreciate the things that were given to them, and that is why these things were taken away. There is a reason why events occur or accidents happen…or your dog ate your winning toto ticket… or your beloved boy/girl friend left you…or vice versa…even your overlooked promotion…or even your promotion….or you meeting that special someone…or you helping a complete stranger…well, what ever it is, God had allowed these things to happen, good or bad in your eyes, because he has allowed your faith to see you through something better or worst, and that you will eventually be fated for something greater.
Yet to be finished by such a she...
She is a fair divided excellence,
whose fullness of perfection lies in him."
