I don't belive in fate because we are the architect of our lives. All the things we do are subject to our own personal deeds and actions. Our life is what we make and could never be attributed to fate. It is only ourselves who maneuvers our direction. We choose what life we wanted to be. Fate cannot undermine the tracking course of our lives. It always lies on our hands. Positive actions are what we need to drive our energies in the right direction. And that for me applies.

Yes I do, because as mortal beings we have boundaries and definitions... So I have a particular definition of both fate and destiny.

For example: it is your fate to die. You are human thus you will die, it is your fate and you can't escape that.

It is your fate to eat. You will eat today and tomorrow and the next day. There is no way for you to continue existing without eating so it is your fate to eat.... or die(thus fulfilling fate)

You will feel pain, you will never fly (without technology), fate is boundary of what is human possible, fate defines you and what you are.

Destiny, your destiny is the probability of outcome based on who you are as an individual.

If your addicted to drugs, then you are currently destine to have a drug over-dose.

You do not drive responsibly then it's your destiny to get in a car wreck. Now you might have a heart attack before you could get in that car wreck but you have more than one destiny. In the heart attack example fate dealt you some bad cards.... say a genetic disorder, but maybe your action of eating unhealthy and not exercising meant that you also had a destiny to have a heart attack. It just beat out the car wreck by some amount.

I look at destiny as something that if you could isolate it. Only it and you, a certain outcome would be bound to happen. That kind of thing. Kind of like the saying you can't succeed if you don't try. Every time you try you have a chance to succeed, so all things being isolated if you tried and tried again you would ultimately succeed as long as your fate didn't dictate otherwise. Fate always wins because fate is the natural law of the universe.

I believe in fate for most things and chance for others,Fate plays a huge roll in meeting people there have been so many times that I have met someone for some specific reason and after we talked for a while we found that we met only because a series of events that normally doesn't happen like (I never come here but I had a flat and then blah blah blah) or something like that so yeah I do believe in fate

Yes, I do believe in fate, yet some how at times, I can put that
into motion, by thought and what I search for with a desire to
find what ever I may be looing for, if I donot give up the search. Then usually by "coincidene" a chance occurrence
takes place, and when I refect to the connections that brought it forward, I am awed! The time table of such can be sooner
or later. (Watch out what you seek/pray for you might get it)
Blessings

Yes I've a strong belive in fate(a power believed to control all events).Just think, why and how Sun is giving us light and energy from countless years,who made shining stars,Moon etc. How and why air is blowing?Why and how planets work in the sky?There are numerous unsolved question,which are too far beyond our expectations.After all,what and where is the biggest power,who is doing all these un-human work?Some thing is there.Also,by which power, we are moving our body parts,why we feel hunger and thirst?There is only a great power of Almihgty God.And this power was from countless years, is and would be for ever. When everything would be vanished at once suddenly.

I believe fate is possible, but I haven't come to a conclusion on that yet. If there is fate, then it has predetermined that I've made it this far in age. I've had plenty of events happen where things were out of my control and could have caused my death, but I'm still here. It is possible that it was fate.

The Law of Absolute does not work in Life.

Creator or God has given us resources, we work with it to make life worth living.

Who ever got good life is Fate. How one uses it is his Karma/Effort/Free Will.

Anna Nicole Smith had married a billionaire, still she could not inherit from her husband and had to fight in court. She Lost case This is fate. Diana married a Prince. She died with a traveling with a person who was not her husband. This is fate.Kennedy was victim of his own fellow man , this is fate, and Osama is haunted and still elusive, this is fate.

Fate in my opinion means that your set to one destiny, and that you can never change that. I dont believe in that, and yet many people do, and they believe that because they think of all the possibilities, but think that regardless, they will always choose one option, and fail to see that they could have easily choosen another option.

E.g. (This may not relate to it) Somebody expects a toy inside a present, but instead gets clothes even though he thought that he would get a toy.

If this makes no sense, dont bother flaming me, not many people understand what i'm saying half the time anyway...

Fate are just words to decribe the force out there by mother nature, words are always hard to express something

meeting you here consider fate

I believe in Karma, not fate. I believe that life will throw random things at you, and depending on what you do with them will determine what you get in return.
Some things thrown at you may seem a little too coincidental to NOT be "fate"...but maybe you were just open enough to the possibilities to actually see them...as opposed to other times in your life when your eyes were closed, and you didn't even notice the "coincidences" that came your way.
