“Why not give in, and let fate have her way?”
Because if Fate wants you to be depressed, then Fate is cruel and she *deserves* to be resisted.
I mean, what are your options here?
#1: Try to find happiness, though you might fail and become depressed anyway.
#2: Give up on happiness and *definitely* become depressed.
Might as well *try* to find happiness, right? And if some specific method isn’t working, then you should just try another method. There’s no point in giving up *entirely*.
(I look forward to seeing how much Little Buddha’s advice overlaps with my own.)
