Excerpt from Elmer Johnson�s Tales of Brown



Why it is that fate is such a cruel companion? She withholds the most illuminating truths until after they are needed, and then presents them as astounding and profound. Yes she, and her conspirator, hindsight, seek suffering daily.



They say �see what should have been, but it is no longer for you!� They say �with what we�ve shown you now, it could have been wonderful, but we have tricked you of it�.



Woe is to the man whose greatest suffering comes from that mistress. For she will vex you continually, teasing you with what could have been, should have been.

But why? Does not a thief serve his time and then get freedom? So then shall a man ever get freedom of what he suffers?

�Tis love�, she says, �the greatest of all things, and therefore the most terrible�.

Once we learn to show acceptance to fate,and stop picking fights with Her,She becomes a dear Friend and quickly leads us to a path of wisdom....

regardless of Our choice on this matter we are all still bound to Her....
