Is it written in the books?

I recently made a horrible mistake and hurt the person I love. I can't give you a reason for my actions, and I'm still trying to figure out why I did such a terrible thing. But my whole situation makes me wonder - Was this supposed to happen? Was it written in the books somewhere that this was going to happen? You see, I'm a firm believer in God and I know that He has His plan for me. I'm sure that in the last 21 years I've strayed and gotten away from His plan, but I have always seemed to find my way back. So, was it in His plan for me to screw up (not really in the way that I did)? And if it was, what does this mean? That I wasn't supposed to be with the person I was with? Or that maybe I was supposed to be with him and this is just to teach me a lesson on taking people for granted? And if it's the latter, then does that mean he is going to come back? And if he is, when will that be? Don't get me wrong about this - I want him to come back to me and forgive me and hold me and tell me that he loves me, but if that's not in God's plan for me - then what is? My whole point is, are we supposed to mess up big time so we end up with what we are meant to have? Are our mistakes really what make our fate?

"Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are."
