Post #1: Fate; It's Life Changing!

Fate. Can it really change lives? Well, I don't know about you, but fate sure changed the lives of Romeo and Juliet in Shakespeare's well known love story. The immense amount of fate showed in this classic tale majorily changes the way we look at what fate can do to our lives.

In the time setting of the two lovers, there were two fighting sides, called the Montagues and the Capulets. Naturally, Juliet was a Capulet, and Romeo was a Montague. These two rival families were forbidden to be friendly to eachother, especially the children, so they wouldn't fall in love.... which is exactly what happens to Romeo and Juliet, but before they figure out that they are sworn enemies, it is too late, because they have already fallen for each other.

My belief on fate is that it really can, in some cases, change your whole life. Juliet's known fate was that she would be soon married to Paris, a capulet of Juliet's father's choosing. However, as soon as she locked eyes with Romeo, she had forgotten about meeting Paris. Romeo, on the other hand, was falling head over heels for Roseline, who didn't love him back. That one small action Romeo decided to do, going to the Capulet's party, changed his fate; he died because of a mistaken idea that his life's lover was dead. I think that Romeo would have lived longer if he hadn't done that action of sneaking into the party.

All in all, I think that most of your fate is your hands. It all depends on the decisions you make. So, if I were you, I'd think about the choices you should and shouldn't make in the future, cause whatever you choose, it could change your life forever.
