#fate

"Art is a revolt against fate. All art is a revolt against man's fate."

"Something, somewhere, knows what’s best for me and promises to keep sending me people and experiences to light my way as long as I live in gratitude and keep paying attention to the signs."

"Remember how far you’ve come, and you won’t have to rely on a destiny for your future. It will come on your own."

"Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone - we find it with another."

"No one has free will until they are an adult, and by then the choices that were made for them, have already set them on a course that gives limited freedom in the choices to be made."

"Life: It is better not to wrap philosophy around such an inconceivable evolving beautiful mystery. If based on perception, alone; whatever the conclusion - it is still guessing."

"Fate loves the fearless."

"Let this time in your life cut you open and drain all of the things that are holding you back. I’m going to help you forgive the things that you won’t let yourself forget."

"When the time is ripe for certain things, these things appear in different places in the manner of violets coming to light in early spring."

"The futility of action does not absolve one from the failure to act. -"

"I look out into the water and up deep into the stars. I beg the sparkling lanterns of light to cure me of myself — my past and the kaleidoscope of mistakes, failures and wrong turns that have stacked unbearable regret upon my shoulders."

"I know that I shall meet my fate somewhere among the clouds above; those that I fight I do not hate, those that I guard I do not love."

"Sometimes the best and worst times of your life can coincide. It is a talent of the soul to discover the joy in pain—-thinking of moments you long for, and knowing you’ll never have them again. The beautiful ghosts of our past haunt us, and yet we still can’t decide if the pain they caused us out weighs the tender moments when they touched our soul. This is the irony of love."

"Death, a necessary end, will come when it will come"

"Stop trying to be less of who you are. Let this time in your life cut you open and drain all of the things that are holding you back."

"I knew it like destiny, and at the same time, I knew it as choice."

"There's no short-cut in life but with right knowledge, you can fast-track things to come to pass."

"But I was always coming here. I though about one of my favorite Sufi poems, which says that God long ago drew a circle in the sand exactly around the spot where you are standing right now. I was never not coming here. This was never not going to happen."

"Stop counting your losses and start counting your blessings. Only then will you discover that losses are always easier to point out and count than blessings. And that your blessings will always outnumber your losses, for they are truly immeasurable."

"What's meant to be will always find a way"
