Fate v.s. Timing


After chatting online with Moreen for the entire night, I decided to put my after-thoughts of the conversation we had into words (while waiting for the delivery of my McGriddles which I actually paid for $8.75!!!).

It is often said that fate and timing are important in relationships. It made sense to me but I never really put much thought into it. Till today.

To quote Moreen: "Nothing in this world that is worth having, comes easy."  True indeed. Fate has brought two people together as friends. However, for the relationship to develop beyond friendship, effort is not enough. Time is a crucial factor as well.

It was not easy for Dear and me to be together too. Or rather to get back together again. We used to be a couple 10 years ago (oh my god, I feel so old suddenly!) when we were still in secondary school. Out of infatuation, I accepted him but left him heartbroken after half a year.

Over the years, I simply refused to give him a chance to rekindle our relationship despite his constant efforts. However, after 8 years and having ended a heartbreaking relationship, I decided to give it a try again. This was because Dear and I have changed. He has become a man whom I am willing to commit myself to. I have become a woman who has different expectations of her partner.

8 years ago, I would never have accepted him.

10 years later, I feel blissful to have found him.

However, if I had knew something, that may not be the case.

If I knew things were not the way I had thought to be;

If accidents did not happen;

If….

Things would have changed.

Fate had brought Mr. Ex-Boyfriend and I together but the wrong timing did not allow the relationship to last.

Or to rekindle it.

Instead, it allowed another relationship to flower.

And what does the future behold?

It is a matter of meeting the right person and executing the right actions at the right timing.

Or perhaps there is nothing we can do about it too. There are just some things that we have no control over.

Like I always say, let nature takes its course then.
