These questions have been asked for millenia, and humans still seek to know the answers for a certainty. I believe the Creator put a veil over our memories, for to know our past lives would only muddy already muddy waters of right and wrong, good and evil. It is a blessing not to be saddled with past life memories. Anyway, the only one that counts for your present needs is the one you are in now.
And I don't think we are here to be punished, we are here to learn. What we perceive as punishment is merely consequences of our own actions. When we know better, we do better.
I believe in destiny and fate to a certain degree. I lean more toward believing that our lives are a series of choices we make every day. It is the consequences of those choices, for good or ill, that translates into what we perceive as fate. Each set of choices, leads to a different fate.

I believe in destiny and fate to an extent. I believe we have a destiny, but we don't know our true destiny. And it is the fate of all humans to die. I do not believe in past lives. I do not believe in reincarnation which is what you are probably referring to when you say "Past Lives". That is my answer to your question.

I do not believe in fate. I believe that God is the Creator and Sustainer of life and that He is sovereign and in control of all. There is this life and there is the afterlife, either in heaven or hell. We will all go to one or the other; life does not just cease.
