Life or destiny is like water, or, if you will, a river. it flows. and you, swimming in it, if you go against it, you will drown. you must flow with it, let it's currents lead you. a river is ever-winding, and you will not know where you will flow too. it is scary, but you must stay afloat this river until it gets the best of you. but until then, only the river determines your fate. sometimes, you can get away with being able to change route, if you are strong enough to switch currents.
your will to stay afloat will be the thing keeping you alive, and the river, though harsh, rocky, dangerous, it can also be a gentile stream where you can stop and either relive your travels, dream about what's ahead, or prepare for your next rough journey, or perhaps it is in the serenity, your sleep, in which you will finally let go of being afloat. perhaps in the peace you will choose what you will of life.
some people are lucky enough to travel to the air, away from the water, every once in a while, for a while, but never to the earth, for the earth is never within reach. never will you be able to really watch life go by and not effect other people, or your destiny.
all of this is up to you. and, sometimes, if you ended up being able to choose all the gentle currents, you are lucky. if you somehow choose all the rough ones, i am sorry. you can choose, but ultimately destiny will have it's way one way or another. you can alter it but it takes so much strength, strength most dont have.
most of my choices have been the rough river. even since my past life, when i have been in the gentle streams for so long, knew i chose this path.
but now, i have chosen a gentle path once again, and hope my next current is the same.
