Who do you trust when you can't trust yourself?

Fate and Destiny are big Words, and many people seem to think they mean the same thing. But if one were to look more closely, one would notice the subtle differences. ‘Fate’ denotes a future that cannot be changed – an event or an ending over which we have no control. It presents a picture of one being pushed inexorably toward some inevitable state, powerless to resist the machinations of whatever invisible power determines our future.

‘Destiny,’ on the other hand, is a little more hit-and-miss. One is not fated to meet their destiny. It requires work on behalf of the individual. One must make the right choices and follow the correct paths to reach their destiny. They must complete journeys, solve quests, and battle demons, whether they be external or internal, then emerge victorious before they can claim their prize. One must choose to accept their destiny, and therefore, can also refuse it.

Those choices, journeys, quests, and demons are oftentimes disguised and deceptively innocuous. We often don’t realize the importance of our decisions. Should I stay home or go to the party? Should I have the fish or chicken? These tiny moments happen every day and usually pass by unnoticed. When we make the wrong Choice, we remain blissfully unaware that we missed the opportunity to seize our destiny.

Terra knew that her decision to divorce her husband was a big Choice. Her idea of a London vacation to celebrate the dissolution of her marriage was exciting, but she had no idea that it would spark a series of big Choices that would change not only her own life, but those of generations both before and after her. She had no idea she was taking the first step on a new path that would lead to her destiny. Or was it fate after all?
