Well, sure. I mean, who likes to think of himself as inevitably fated, right? [Asks the fated being somewhat rhetorically.] It makes things seem futile in the extreme. Better to hold to the idea of endless possibilities even if those possibilities are all inevitable, in and of themselves.

Unless, of course, you're the kind of person who does, in fact, believe in fate and destiny and you're basically okay with that. I know someone like that. That's why I say that.
