Do you believe in fate? That whatever happens in your life is destined? I do and I think it helps me get through life easier, and not stress as much. I still stress about things, but believing that everything that will happen to us in life is meant to be and has been written my a higher power helps alleviate a lot of my stress. How about you?

I believe in free will and that we generally make our own fate. I have choices, make decisions, and will suffer the consequences if some of them weren't good decisions.

No, I don't believe that.
How does a life have any meaning if it's all predestined?
I strive constantly to be good, giving, loving, generous, and forgiving.
If some power has it all planned that I am to be a certain kind of person, what's the point?
If some power has every event and action on this planet planned, what's the point?

Yes I see your point. I find this topic to be very interesting.

I agree with your view Wondergirl and I also believe that we have have choices.
