Was it his destiny? by Barbora Misakova

Do you believe in faith or destiny? I was not sure about it in the past, but now I think I am really starting to believe in it. Lot of people had suffered and made lot of mistakes in their lives and they always took it negatively as some kind of curse or bad luck. But were really these things so bad? What if they were just leading their lives to the right direction? We are always thinking about the things which would follow if we did or didn’t do something. No matter what happens, we are always unsatisfied. And maybe that is the reason why something what we call destiny is making decisions instead of us. Imagine that so much beloved Ted Kennedy would never have that t! errible car accident, that no other passenger would be killed, that he wouldn’t run away from the place of accident. What would happen with him? Maybe his popularity as the last of Kennedys would be rising up directly proportional with his egoism and pride. Maybe he would become a president of the United States and maybe he would be killed as his two brothers. Would it be better? Of course, these are just speculations, but one thing is sure, if the Chappaquiddick incident wouldn’t happen he would became an American president. And now another question goes: when he became a president, would he be as good president as good senator he was? It is hard to say, even though it is worthy to polemize. Anyway, I really started to believe, that even bad things can shape us that can make us better and more empathetic, just as Sen. Ted Kennedy was.
