			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do all of these words have in common? One thing&#8230;Opportunity.</p>
<p>Fate is destiny&#8230;a pre-determined path&#8230;something designated for you by whatever higher being decided that it was your &#8220;stars&#8221; to do something, live somewhere, and inevitably&#8230;be someone&#8230;</p>
<p>Faith is that feeling you have when you believe that everything in your life has a greater purpose&#8230;that even though something&#8217;s not fate, that there&#8217;s a reason for it&#8230;it&#8217;s what spawns the feeling of hope and safety&#8230;like because there&#8217;s a purpose, you will inevitably be guided to something better&#8230;</p>
<p>Luck is a preconceived notion related to fortune&#8230;something like centripedal force&#8230;it doesn&#8217;t exist but yet it does&#8230;luck is something that you are cursed with when fate goes &#8220;wrong&#8221; and that you are blessed with when fate goes &#8220;right&#8221;&#8230;It seems like it is something that is almost innate to your being&#8230;like you are born blessed or cursed&#8230;somewhat attributed with destiny but it isn&#8217;t a path but instead each individual &#8220;case&#8221; that leads you to your lucky or unlucky verdict.</p>
<p>Probability is somewhat on its own&#8230;the only thing with inductive proof and mathematical reasoning behind it.  It can completely explain &#8220;the luck of the draw&#8221; but at the same time, from the viewpoint of the individual&#8230;it means nothing&#8230;for you are just one data point in the worldly,nay i say, universal perspective of probable action. It can be a locality or a macrocosm of interactions between every molecule or group of molecules but it too. is drawn into the same group as fate, faith and luck and spits out one fair conclusion&#8230;opportunity.</p>
<p>All of the above convey opportunity for what is and for what could be.  And regardless of the process or the cause, the effect is a summation of interactions of every moment that you sank or swam&#8230;just to deliver you to the very place you&#8217;ve arrived at today.  Whatever you may call it, whether pre-determined or probabilistic, it&#8217;s never certain to you nor to the rest of those standing within the system&#8230;so take every opportunity for what it presents you&#8230;one more moment&#8230;one more step&#8230;one more chance.</p>
