Do you ever think about how destiny is only found in stories?
When your light turns green, was it fate? When you get a discount on your load of groceries, was it written in the stars? Anything that happens in your daily life of reality, do you think it was made just for you.
I've found people don't like the idea of destiny. They try to escape it and forge their own path. Others rely too much on destiny and keep waiting for something to happen. All it takes is a finger to knock the domino over, if it's not there, the end won't appear.
But fate isn't something that they're being forced to do. Destiny isn't those helpful suggestions in the people you meet and signs you see. It's what is and what will be. No amount of unexpected choices will change that. Especially not with a story in mind.
