We own our lives, but we don't control our lives hundred percent.
Yes, external factors do have a say.
However, we have a control button in the way of the choices we make. They determine a major part of our lives.
Although it does seem like in the grand scheme of things we look like puppets we have more power than we give credit for.
It gives easy escape route for some to say I have no power over what happens or grab the circumstances we live in with both hands and take it as a challenge.
At the end of the day your life is how you perceive it.
Enjoyed reading your piece.

Thanks for taking the time to drop by. If you ask me, I think what matters is to enjoy our existence whether we're totally in control or partially in control. Regret is one of the reasons why it hurts more, especially when we know that sometimes when we falter or fail, it could have turned out really differently.
