The essence of fate, what the whole idea entails, is essentially that an outside force takes hold of the steering wheel in one's life and shifts the building blocks, the events which the individual encounters, in a configuration that is not of that person's choosing. The individual is in a submissive position while "Daddy", the bigger force, is allowed to do as it pleases. "Daddy" is in charge in this belief.
Those who have had things "handed to them" or those who have had devastating events drastically change their life may claim that fate rules the lives of the many people of this world. A person who is lazy and lets the world pass by may claim that fate is making everything happen because from their point of view they are thrust into situations such as their childhood, their career, and marriage with little or no action on their part. This situation is an example of a person who has let their point of view distort their perception of the rest of the world's population. They will likely believe that all or nearly all people are like them. This individual always had the freedom to do whatever they pleased, but in having such a small amount of ambition chose not to. In continually nurturing their own belief in fate, by choosing not to act, letting events go on around them, occasionally getting caught up in a flood of circumstance and being carried off to an event without their consent, it all happened as they said it would.
