"Q".............

I couldn’t think of a proverb that starts with “Q”, and so I will give a quote instead:
“Quo fata trahunt, retrahuntque sequamur...”—Virgil (from Aenid)
This is Latin for “Wherever the fates lead us, let us follow.”
Many people believe that we are here in this life for a purpose, and that our lives have been predestined.  
On such deep subjects, I (like most) have my own opinions. But, I think what my views sum up to is that….
I compare life to traveling down a road that eventually ends with our death. What scenery we see along the way, the detours we take, the directions we choose to go when we come to a crossroads….all that is up to us, or left to chance.
Wherever the road (fate!) leads us, we should follow.
Anyhow, I am quite fond of this quote.^^
