Why do people always assume that destiny is not having free will? It's totally different. Not having free will is having all your choices made for you. Destiny is just what will come to pass. It's just all the choices we make. They already know what you'll pick. And by 'they', I don't really mean anyone in particular. No one really even has to know what our destinies are. Destiny is where we all end up by our own choices and circumstances. You do have free will, and that's exactly what makes destiny what it is. It's your whole path laid out before you. All the stops you'll make, the people you'll meet. You can't change it, because even your trying to change it is written in your destiny. That's also why it's impossible to change the past. Because the past has already happened, and even if you could go back in the future you would've already been in the past. I think I believe in reincarnation too, but that's a discussion for a different time.
