I believe in fate - to a certain degree. Here's just a quick example of a situation that somewhat illustrates my thoughts. Lead singer of Escape the Fate, Ronnie Radke, left the band last September, only to return in November. Fate could have been the reason why the band was able to stay together, but it was up to the members to make it happen. That seems like a simple concept to grasp, but consider scenario number two: A man walks into a deli and asks for a roast beef sandwich. To pay for the food, he reaches into his pocket for some change, but instead he finds an elephant tusk. Fate? You decide.
