Re: Fate? Destiny? Fate is an illusion.
The only way to describe fate is by saying:
Everything that is going to happen, is going to happen.
The entire thing is a paradox because the outcome depends on itself, so to find the answer, you need the answer..
So basically you cant solve it.
We came up with fate only to explain luck (mostly ill luck) and unnatural flow of events.
Realize that people seldom say, "My, I just won the lottery! Its all fate!"
People always say, "Sigh it was his fate that he ended up in such a sorry state."
People tend to have higher expectations of what is going to happen, and when they DO get something good, they do not really attribute fate for it, because they were already expecting it, but they blame fate for bad things they get.
Therefore some people dislike fate, and think it is negative, when actually all it means is luck/probability...
