Destiny
Many people believe that an invisible hand or a web of fate control our lives. Whether it'd be under religion, luck, or circumstance, the end result is the same. Different people are meant for different things. Or are they? Are we really being manipulated by higher powers to accomplish a goal that ultimately wasn't even ours to begin with? Are we nothing but playthings for a handful of beings we can't even see? Would that even make us real people anymore? Our choices would essentially be some one else's. Our freedom, a cleverly constructed illusion so we are still satisfied enough to play someone else's sick game. It could be worse. If our fates were decided already, it would be a little bit relieving. If what we are to do in life has already been pre-determined, why worry? Greatness or ruin will come to us whether we want it to or not. But is that all life is? Maybe. Maybe not. The alternative is that we are the toys of something much closer.
