Because God wanted it to be that way...

I often see people who do not put any effort to achieve their goals, they do not fight for what's theirs and they live their life without being happy and satisfied. They just calmly say: “If my life is in this way, means that God wanted it to be this way.” Whatever you believe in, you probably know people who say: “That's my fate”, “Life wanted it to be that way” etc. It's easier to dodge from taking an action!
I'm going to tell you a true story. Listen...


It was in India. We were on the road from Dindigul towards the east coast.
We decided to stretch and to go to the toilet. Everything would have been perfect if not the fact that in the surroundings there were no petrol stations and no place where to “relieve” ourselves.
Anyway we had to organize a “toilet” in some way, so... boys went to the left and girls to the right.
In a certain point we hear piercing shout reaching from the “male part” of the “toilet”.
I run up there and I see our Indian guide on the ground curling up with pain. “What happened?!” - I ask. -”A snake bit me and now I am waiting for the death to come”.-he replied. I was surprised (because of his words) and terrified at the same time. There were more people with me and we all had the same look on our faces: open mouth and eyes like ping-pong balls. “We are going immediately to the hospital” - I said to our guide. -”I'm not going anywhere! God wanted the snake bit me and now I'm humbly waiting for my destiny, my death. This is the will of God, I cannot question it!”-he stammered in pain. We decided with the rest of the group that we are not going to listen to him. The closest hospital was 15 minutes away, so we had to act fast. We “loaded” our guide in the car (we almost had to tie him down!) and we went to the nearest hospital.
The doctors immediately took care of the Indian and when he was stabilized we could visit him.
-”You see, you're alive, you got the antidote! You will live many years! If we hadn't been determined, you would have died in pain!”

Apparently God wanted it to be that way”-the Indian replied.
