As humans we crave emotional and physical attachment to others. Our culture has made love into something almost unattainable, a dark and handsome prince sweeps a lonely housemaid off her feet and they live happily ever after in a castle on a hill. The story of Cinderella has been ingrained in my mind ever since I was a child. As time has gone on I have come to the realization that this is not always the case. This brings up the questions, “How do fate and freewill coexist?” We all have the choice to end things whenever we want or establish new relationships and experiences, but if fate exists how do we not derail our fate causing a wrinkle in our destiny? Maybe one or the other does not even exist; maybe there is not fate or destiny pushing us forward, which is a little unsettling. If we have no fate then how do we know we are not making huge mistakes that could ruin our life? I personally believe there is an essence of fate intertwined with our freewill. Basically, we have multiple roads that we can choose travel down. It is a possibility that we make the choice which road we take; each outcome is a mixture of freewill and our destiny.
