A simple answer.No, I don't believe in fate.No-one controls my life,but me.

I have no Destiny.It isn't wrote before me.I write it my self,a second at a time.

Here is an example of how 'fate' worked in my life ~ if I hadn't joined Peace Corps and gone to Yemen, I would never have found and met dh. Yes he's American too, but he was from Syracuse NY while I was from Minnesota and we would NEVER have met without Peace Corps. That was fate. IMHO of course.

Disagree all you want. I'm ready for it!

Um. How about COINCIDENCE, Bilqis?
Just a thought, of course, and only my opinion, but wouldn't FATE mean that every meeting we have, even in our own 'backyard', is meaningful and deliberate?
But you could just as easily have met someone else to share your life with in, say, Manhattan, or Nashville, or your hometown on a shopping trip, or wherever, and be every bit as certain it was Fate! (IMHO! )
Or am I just 'too *sensible* for my shoes'?

Well maybe they might not have been as nice as that guy. You cant get the same quality of everything everywhere you go. For instance washington girls and food are not as good as hawaiian ones

Fate? To a certain extent, perhaps... but I also believe in free will, and we can capriciously change our fate with a choice. I think our fate may be destined if we follow a path, but we can always change the path, and thus, our fate.

But then again... looking ahead is never easy.

I do believe in fate, but only to a certain extent. I don't believe my entire life has been charted out for me. There has been way to many strange *coincidences* for me not to believe in fate. I've had to many of those I just happened to be there moments.
