Tahreem Asad Free Will‚ the Formation of Fate People say that fate is unavoidable‚ but‚ through my personal experiences‚ it has come to my realization that one’s fate is in their own hands. A person’s actions determine their fate‚ which is why I believe that life is essentially defined by a person’s free will.
