A Bird Eye view of Amor Fati from Toulmin's Model

Toulmin's Model is method of argumentation that breaks down any argument into six key component parts: Claim, Grounds, Warrant, Backing, Rebuttal, and Qualifier. Toulmin's model will be used for dissecting the argument raised by the Latin Phrase " Amor Fati" and how sensible is it to be used as daily driver for countering and interpreting events happening daily. Amor fati may be translated as "love of fate" or "love of one's fate". It is used to describe an attitude in which one sees everything that happens in one's life, including suffering and loss, as good or, at the very least, necessary.

There is a term for that in behavior psychology called confirmation bias. I always wanted to stand out of crowd. Not as the only black sheep in a herd but as Shaun the sheep. Since I have no viable and recognizable talent, i choose to satisfy my need to be unique by believing something majority of population does not. I believe that there is a greater cause for my existence and only by proving other side wrong or trying to justify my point i can redeem myself.
