Fate

[Veritas]

For those of us who like to get philosophical I thought I'd start a thread with regards to fate and see what everyone thinks about it.

Is fate a final destination (this is meant to be understood by NOT having the right to choose where you end up)?

Or could it be that fate is one of multiple destinations depending on what WE choose in life?



For me fate is what WE choose. For example, I decide to walk to the store...and get hit by a car. Did I have the power to avoid that accident or did it happen because it was meant to happen? Now is that fate or is it just my own negligence that lead to an unfortunate accident and I was able to prevent it from happening?
I don't think fate is choosing our paths for us but rather that fate KNOWS what paths we are going to choose and thus = Fate. I hope any of this made sense
