Do you believe in fate?

When people say that fate is something being fixed and you can't change it. One of the interesting story one i have heard of is this.
There is a man who been with his girlfriend for 6 years but when they are about to married she ran away with another man.
In the previous life, there was a lady who died in the beach without wearing any clothing. Man A walked passed by and felt sorry for the lady and went away. Man B walked passed by and find a cloth to cover the body and went off. Man C had passed by and felt sorry for the lady and buried the body.
In this life, Man A is the lady's ex-boyfriend. Man B is the present boyfriend and when they are about to married. The lady went away with another man which is Man C.

Fate is something that is weird, whether is it real or coincidence hard to say. Here is a story. When I was in ITE, during the first few days, I had took the bus to school, on the bus there was a pretty gal. I had chance to meet her a few times. There was once which rained heavily, I had
again on the bus. It is really a good chance for me to talk to her because when we drop at the bus stop, which is quite a distance from the school. The bus-stop remains only me and that gal. I try to talk to her and offer her an umbrella. She had offer me to take cab but I rejected. So i walked alone to the school. There was a few other times we meet but I do not have enough courage to talk to her and ask for her name and number. So later that I had gave up.

Another story. There is someone which is someone which i cannot forget. We had known each other for sometimes. Then it is quite weird that we keep seeing each other by chance outside. I remember once I had saw her when I am driving outside my camp. She was wearing school uniform. Then the next time i had meet her outside MRT. I had pat her head because she didn't saw me. At the same time I met a camp mate, so she rush off and i didn't have time to chat with her. There is few times that i saw her outside. She had said that why she keep on bumping into me. I remember the last time i saw her outside a shopping center. She was with a friend. I actually wanted to talk to her but just say hi and went off but regret later. So when chance come, one has to take it. I know I had lost the chance, so the advice to others is chance is hard to come by, must treasure.
