Fate is strange sometimes

Yes, you read that right. The title says fate with an e, not fat. So instead of telling you about my weight loss story, I will tell you a little story about fate.

I‘ve been driving home from the gym with a nagging craving for something sweet, ideally a tub of Häagen-dasz vanilla caramel brownie ice cream if we are being truthful. I have had more sweet cravings in the last few weeks which have probably more to do with a lack of relaxing sleep, more stress and low vitamin D levels as the sun hours are getting fewer day by day as we are nearing winter.

Since I am on a path of not depriving myself of anything - still working on the sleep deprivation, though - I did a little de-tour for a supermarket that I was positive had my serotonin provider of choice in store.

So, this is where fate comes in. At the supermarket’s parking lot, I realized I had left my wallet at home. Well, I thought, that was probably a good thing to happen and there must be some supernatural power taking care of my waistline and of my IBS, I guess. I continued on my way home, not nearly as disappointed as I expected.

But, dear readers, fate paid me a second visit that I did not see coming at all. By the time I reached the street I would have taken had I not done the de-tour, there was a large car accident with police cars blocking off the street I would have originally taken. The street I was on - my de-tour street - was not blocked and I was able to drive home without any hindrance.

What do you make of this, dear readers? Has fate been my friend? Is this a sign that life sometimes gives us greater rewards if we are being less than perfect?

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed that little story and that you happily ignored all those little mistakes I made since English is not my first language.
