"...Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart,"
I read the quote of Marcus Aurelius aloud in front of the class as some stared in awe, while others just dozed off.
"Fate...is..destiny?" I questioned. I continued on going on about what fate is to me.
As soon as I finished, I bowed quickly and scurried back to my seat as I inhaled and exhaled silently to myself.
It was English class and we were to present a quote or some kind of saying and explain to the class what it meant.
I lied.

..Fate. To me, fate is nonsense. You can't be destined with someone. You choose your path in life, but there's never a planned ending for you.
Red strings of fate? Bull.
