Do you believe in fate/destiny?
Some days, I swear I’m the CEO of my life
I plan, I hustle, I re-plan,
and then Destiny just walks in like,
“Cute. Anyway…”
and presses backspace on everything.
.
I try hard,
I pray harder,
I even Google
“why am I not getting what I want despite trying so much”
like some desperate midnight researcher
but the results?
What I wanted: Nope.
What I did not ask for:
Here, take it. Urgent delivery.
(Sincerely,
The Universe,
with terrible timing.)
.
Sometimes I feel Fate is that silent old man
sitting in the corner
calm, harmless
until the moment I make a decision.
Then suddenly he whispers,
“Let’s add a twist.”
.
And then there are those uninvited out-of-nowhere moments
the ones I never called, never manifested,
but they show up anyway like,
“Hi, I’m here to confuse your life,
derail your plans,
and maybe… accidentally make sense?”
If that’s not destiny,
then what is?
.
Because honestly
Some things just slip out of our hands,
no matter how tight we hold.
And I keep trying to control everything,
like a responsible adult-in-the-wrong-movie,
while the Universe upgrades
its drama budget every month.
.
So yes,
I believe in Fate
but not the glittery, magical kind.
More like the kind where Destiny looks at my effort and says:
“Effort: 10/10.
Result: Lol, no.”
.
And me?
I get up again,
add some sarcasm,
fix my eyeliner,
and try once more.
Because maybe Fate is secretly wondering,
“When will this girl give up?”
.
And I’m like
Never.
You’re a twist.
I’m a twist.
Let’s see who wins.😁
