缘分?Do you believe in Fate and a Greater power???
I was never a strong believer of fate or faith. But something happened that made me doubt or question myself that. I ran into a fortune teller who offered to read my fortune. To me, I thought of it as a game and agreed. I was more sceptical than anything else. However, the teller told me things which shocked me.
(1) He said my health was not very good. I initially thought, most of the time thats wat they say. But he pointed out that my lower back has been in pain for a long time, and showed me the location of my problem. I was surprised by that, b'cos I have been having back problems for many years already and that the location he pointed out was exactly where the pain was. The pain isn't always there, but occurs enough times to cause me inconvenience.
(2) He said that my blood sugar level is high. Which again is spot on, cos I did a test and the doctor told me that. I have never told anyone else about the test results cos I thought that it wasn't important.
(3) He said my body don't react well to temperature changes. My body lacks fire and I get cold easily despite me being so fat and big sized. Very 准.
(4) I was having doubts about my career path. I don't feel happy doing wat I was doing, but he told me that the current path I m on is the right one. He said that he sees a bright future if I continue on my current path. This is true again, as I have always disliked my choice of study. And I have the thought of studying Physiotheraphy after completion of my degree. But this topic of career is doubtful lar, since most ppl are unhappy with their current jobs.
However, the things that he said later on really bothered me. He told me about my love life. He said that currently my heart is given to someone. But this someone is not the right person for me and even if I try to make things last, it will not last more than 3 years. Instead, he told me that I have a fated other half. According to him, this fated other half and me have been together for the past 3 life times, and this would be our 4th. Funny hor??? In my heart, I was laughing lor....
He told me that this person has just entered my life and is born on a certain date. To my surprise, I indeed met someone recently and that the person's birthday was the same as the date the fortune teller told me. I totally freaked out lor.... He then told me something even scarier. He said that our fate has started to bind this lifetime, and that we have 14 days to let our love blossom. If not, we will part as strangers, never to speak again after the 14th day. And if i missed this chance, I will have to suffer endless heart breaks. Scary right????
Anyway, I was still sceptical lar, but kept an open mind. Firstly, I do not have any feelings for this person who is supposed to be my fated one. I don't believe in loving someone at first sight. Secondly, I find the idea of loving someone in 14 days ridiculous. Thirdly, my heart is with someone else at the moment. Wouldn't I be a flirt if i fall for someone else just like that?
So.... I was rather stressed up by this issue. If say, I choose to be with my fated one, when i dun have any feelings... I think I m doing myself and the other person wrong. If say, I choose not to, then will it mean that I will be single for life and go through heart breaks? I know by me thinking this way, it is very selfish, but who don't want to be happy??
I thought things over and over, and I realise that I don't see myself with this fated person. I went to the Kwan Yin temple to ask for advice by drawing lots. To my surprise, the lot i draw tells me the exact same thing that the fortune teller told me. U think it is coincidence? But isn't it too much of a coincidence?
Anyhow, 14 days have passed. And I thought alot and came to a conclusion. No matter what happens, I choose my own path. If at the end of the day, I get hurt and remain single, it is my choice. I tell myself that, whatever that happens I don't want to regret. Things I decide today will affect me in future and the important things is not to live with regrets.
Think I learnt alot from this whole issue. I may not be the perfect person, neither will I make the right decisions everytime. But they are decisions that I make. I may still be a child when it comes to my mentality, but I m growing each day.
