Yeah I also agree with choices, but fate is also in the end of a choice.
This may sound corny, but that makes me think about how I used to be terrified of life decisions. After high school, I spent a year trying to decide what I should do, rather than what I would do (if that makes sense). I would start thinking about how entirely different my life will be years down the line based on a decision I would make now.

Then I had an epiphany, like a smack in the head, that not making a choice is a choice in itself. I can't know for certain how my choices will affect my future, but I had to decide that I would rather choose a path and wonder where the other would have led, than not choose one at all.
