Journal #2 Do we control our fates?

In a way i think we do control our fates but in another way i think we don't. I don't think we control them but we have influence on them. If we make wrong decisions sometimes that can decide your fate. Mostly I think our fate is out of our hands. Everything happens for a reason though so if something bad happens it is just taking you closer to the place that you were meant to be in. Fate is pretty much in God's hands though because he knows your life plan but you don't so you have to struggle sometimes to figure it out. Everything that happens in your life i believe just  makes you stronger. Not everything that happens though happens because of fate, some things just happen because that's the way they went even if they weren't planned to be that way.
