Fates

Fates, originating from ancient mythology, are perceived as powerful beings or forces that determine an individual's destiny or life course. In many stories, they are depicted as a set of three: one spins the thread of life, another measures its length, and the third sews it together, symbolizing birth, lifespan, and death. These forces are beyond human control, guiding or shaping one's future according to a predetermined plan. The concept underscores the idea that certain aspects of life are influenced by forces beyond our influence, illustrating the balance between free will and destiny.
