Once, I was told I was trying to control my fate a little too much. The woman who said this had also said that if I let the things be, I would feel more...complete since I was part of the chain, one of the pieces of the big puzzle.
I didn't understand it at the time, but now this is all crystal clear. Every step we take, every little thing we do, it's all leading us to be the people we are supposed to be. Even if we can't see it, we're all pawns of the future that is planned for all of us.
And the funny thing? For our whole lives, people tried to describe the future that was waiting for us with words that are not enough. We were all labeled like if we were some type of canned food. The boy who is raised to be the perfect soldier. The girl who is too wild to be let free. The boy who is too smart for his own sake. The girl who would be forced to break her own restrains.
But somehow, despite all of our differences, we do fit. When your future's out to get to you, you realize you're not that different from the crowd that you always felt isolated from. Somewhere, somehow, you are one with all those damaged goods out there.
And until then? You just sit and wait to find someone as corrupted as you are, because trust me, no one is ever alone.
