There are two kinds of people in this life.
Those that make things happen, and those that things happen to.
You can only be one, you can't be both.
You can choose to live by what fate brings you. Circumstances, situations or your background, and live by whatever the day brings.
Or
You can choose to live by faith. Doing and going for things, not because it's easy or convenient, but because you believe that nothing is impossible to him who believes.
You can decide to live by what, friends and family, situations and circumstances, background and society (all agents of fate) want of you.
Or
You can decide to take a leap of faith to live the life of your dreams. The choice is yours, choose wisely.
