Free will is when you can choose what your life is going to be like by what YOU do and its not predetermined. Fate is when your life is already planned out and things are going to happen to you no matter what. I think that a man's existence is not determined by fate alone. I believe that it is a little bit of fate and free will that determine what happens to us. I believe that things are planned out for us, but you have to rise to the challenge and see it through rather than just sit there and wait for it to happen. You have to work for what you deserve. If you do not work for what you are supposed to then it will not happen to you. You are given several choices and it is up to you what kind of fate you will have. If you slack off and never do anything then your fate would be different than if you worked hard all your life and tried your best.
