Fate

So, you know that moment when your walking down the sidewalk looking all fine in your little red dress and stilettos and you happen across that super sexy, I mean underwear model material, man.  Now wouldn't you know that fate works magic people. At the exact moment you get right beside this god f a man, one of your heals breaks but as you begin to fall sideways he happens to catch you and help you back up. Now if that wasn't enough, this thing called fate has more in store for you. When you regain your composer as he stands holding you as if he is your guardian angel you happen to make eye contact and bam, you both fall madly in love and live happily ever after. Who doesn't love fate, right? Yeah right, because there are only a select few in this world that have this kind of luck and most of them are celebrities and this only happens in the movies they star in. So do we, as normal people, really have fate looking out for us in this area of life?

I have to be honest, I am a firm believer in fate. However, fate works a bit different for me. For example... take the scenario above. Now if you know me very well you would know that this chicky would never be caught wearing a little red dress, maybe a black one or a pink one but never red. Also, I can barely walk from point A to point B in flats without tripping over my own feet so there is no way in hell I would wear anything with a heal on them. So that fact alone kills everything above, thus it would never happen to me. Nonetheless, I must start from the beginning and tell the story of how fate works for us real people, so here goes nothing.

Its about mid-day on your day off and you suddenly remember that you had that errand to run that you have been putting off for about three weeks. Ah, what the heck, you might as well go and get it done. You run out the door quickly before you change your mind and begin the long walk down the sidewalk towards your destination. Your not in a bad mood so you have a little pep in your step and your are really making head way. Thinking about that puts a smile on your face! You are now in a great mood because you are proud of yourself. You turn the corner of a building and immediately bump into something hard. You try to keep your head down as you realize that you just ran into someone and are completely embarrassed when you notice that you forgot to change out of your pajamas and now you are even more humiliated. You mumble your apologies with your head still down and try to maneuver around them but it gets even more awkward because the other person is doing the same thing and now you are caught doing the two step tango! Wow, could things get much worse? This goes on for a minute and you brave a glance up to see who this person is playing this sick game with you. And then it happens, eye contact. Not with a god of a man but with a man. Not ugly though, no not ugly at all actually then he smiles and your breathing stops for a split second and you think, Wow he is perfect. He says sorry for the trouble and you nod but no words come from your mouth. All you can do is keep staring. He notices and strikes up a random conversation. Eventually this leads to a date the following week and BAM, little thing called LOOOOOOVE happens! And it was all accomplished while looking your worst in the most unexpected place. Fate baby!

Now, I don know about you but I would believe the second story if a complete stranger walked up to me and told me that this was how they met their significant other, wouldn't you? So this proves fate does in fact work for us real people! Not really, but let me think I am the all great philosopher and that I proved a great point in the debate on fate, okay! Give me this one...

I have sincerely missed all of my loyal followers and look forward to the emails on this one. I will try my best to not be absent like I have been recently! XoXo
