is destiny real?

[ultraman]

i have always wondered if destiny or fate is real i know that there are things that could have happened to me and they did not i wonder if some people are just here to be here or if you have something you have to do.

Hi ultraman, those things that could have happened to you, but didn't - was that because you made a choice, or was there no explanation for it?

Anything you have done is past. We all make decisions that can alter our lives, sometimes for the better and sometimes not. There are also circumstances that we could never forsee; It is how we react to these that may change the future.
Destiny and fate? Everyone lives and dies. That's the only thing that you may consider as fate.
Does your life have a predetermined meaning?
Free will can alter your walk on the earth but after that, who knows?
