Well, I don't know what others believe, but to me Fate does exist and I don't think you can ever go wrong on Fate. Cause there are many roads and choices throughout your life and Fate will change with each choice you make and every road you take. Eventually you will get to where you are meant to be, it just may take a little longer if you take the long way around, or if you choose to take the short way. You just need to believe that what Fate has planned for you will be at the end of the road that it made for you. You just need to Believe.

Fate allows for alteration of a pre-destined path but that alteration was always part of the path. That new path becomes the fate and was pre-destined to begin with. For example, if you wake up in the morning and decide to get out of bed on the left instead of the right side, that was fate and it was pre-destined that you would do that. It's crazy, I know. I think fate only gets screwed up in Meg Ryan movies.

Fate IS in fact, being at the right place at the right time. If you aren't there, then your fate is obviously elsewhere. Fate takes you where you are meant to be, when you are meant to be there. And, I certainly DO believe in it. Some things are just in the control of a greater power.

I don't believe in predestined fate.
That eliminates free choice.
I do believe in a higher power that knows our beginning to our end. A power that knows what roads we take. Each second of our lives there are a billion different roads or choices we can make. And each ot those gives us a million different directions we can go. We need to feel that we have free choice. But, our fate is already known becasue time is a circle or a string.... It is a mystery that keeps going. We are unsure of what comes next or before or after. We just live this day forward.

Well....whatever you decided to choose would be ur fate.
So didn't you answer the question yourself?!
If you turned right- That would be your fate.
If you leaped from a bridge and died- that would be your fate.
If you ate at Mings- Found out you got cat instead of chicken that would be your fate.
Fate works thing out- be it for the bad or good reasons...typically fate steps into play when your not doing what your suppose to be doing in the first place....
It leads you to the next step on you journey through life and death.

If you believe in fate, then by extension you also believe that you will always be in the place fate determines at the 'right' time. So yes, if you believe in fate, no matter your choice, that would be the choice you were fated to make.

You can't screw up fate.... no matter where you are if you believe in fate that is where you are supposed to be. You can regret your choices but if you believe in fate... that which you regret wasn't supposed to be to begin with.

Nope! Because that would have made it the wrong place at the wrong time. It's fate!

To you question you can say no or yes. But here's what I think:
Fate exists, but then at the same time, you can control circumstances.
It's a concept that cant be understood by the rational mind.
And by hearing your question I understand you rational enough to neglect answers such as this.

we tend to call fate what we are ment to do....but i believe we destine our fate ...what you said about crossroads and our decision about which one to chose is fate...but again we decide which our paths will be and we call THAT fate..........
