Hi! How'd you do? A Fateful Encounter is an original essay I wrote about 4 years ago when I was in the midst of what I believe to be my most trying time as a student. As a back story, when I wrote this piece I was in turmoil over whether to pursue my , then, course or just give it all up. That time I failed three major subjects and subsequently lost my scholarship. I have never felt more aimless and lost. The experience I wrote about in A Fateful Encounter helped me readjust my views, realign my goals, redirect my path and pick up the pieces, put them together and rebuild myself. I wish to share this with you in the hope that somehow, YOU too may find something significant in this simple experience and perhaps come up with your own insights that would hopefully inspire you in any way possible! Enjoy!
