How to use "Inevitable" in context?
There is no escaping the inevitable. It is what happens when you make a choice and plan for it. Often, the results are what we expected, but sometimes they are not. The inevitability of consequences can be a daunting prospect, but it is also a powerful tool. Without expecting the worst, we can tack back against the current and create a future that is both better and more manageable. Knowing how to use inevitability can be the difference between sage caution and paralyzing fear.
There is no getting around the fact that the future holds consequences.
