post no. 200 - "Fate"

I’m a firm believer in fate and destiny. Let’s just put that down there as a fact.

Lots of stuff has happened to me over the recent past (and if I think of it my whole life really) that has happened for a reason, or a major (seeming) coincidence, or just simple amazing fact that has made my life much better for it happening (so in my mind it couldn’t have been any other way).

Over Easter I was pondering, and I glanced up to my necklace hangy thing and I remembered I got this necklace in Florida, a Mickey Mouse pendant with little crystals on it and I thought it was so pretty. I remember the tag on it said ‘Australian Crystal’. Now I don’t know if they make crystals in Australia, but I Know they make them in Austria.

This provoked the further thought that my grandma was asked if she wanted to move to Australia after the war, and she thought they meant Austria, so she said no, and that’s why they moved to England instead.

Bri’s dad was talking one time about him family, and the fact that they had the opportunity to go to Australia in the 60s (I think some of his family did in fact).

If circumstances had thrown our two families across the world, would we have still met when the time was right. The universe is a conspirer who only wants the best for people. What is it that is so important that we have to be together to achieve it I wonder?
