A little bit of both. I feel you have free will to make your ow decisions.


Fate.


I believe in fate, if it's meant to be it will be


both. you have to grab the opportunities that destiny presents to you.


I believe we make our own fate. Though being so in love makes me think maybe we are supposed to be together.


a little of both!


I believe everything we do is known ahead of time and planned. That said, we are still responsible for our lives and decisions and should do everything possible to steer towards a better destiny


In this relationship, with as much shit as we have had to go through and fight through, there has to be fate.


A little bit of both lol
I believe it's how you live your life. If you don't meet any new people then you can expect fate to have a role in how your future will be. However if you put yourself in new situations and meet new and exciting people you can control your own destiny.

I believe the lord leads my steps. If I go off course he will get me back on track.


Fate is my only explanation for us
I agree

I believe that if you want to have something enough you can make it happen, I think sometimes people use, "I guess it was just meant/not meant to be.." as a get out when they've given up trying. But that's my cynicism, I'm a firm believer in our meeting being destined and I'm incredibly grateful for it. xx


A little bit of both.


Interesting..! My mother has always believed in fate... Was it fate that made me log onto Facebook and see Anna's status asking for a teacher? Was it fate that made me log onto Facebook (again) and see my other inbox and find his message?....
Another way to look at it could be: what if I'd been looking for a job and Anna had seen my status? Or if I'd stalked all of Joel's friends called Alex in the hope of recognising his profile?...
Maybe it's the difference between proactive and reactive.
As if you would ever have looked through Joel's friends :p
