"By definition, fate is those outside forces establishing the preordained path of your life despite what you do. Given its definition, it should come as no surprise ‘fate’ comes from the Latin, fatum, meaning has been spoken."
Yes, I believe, to some extent, that there are forces outside our control that affect our lives.
Due to all the recent holidays and bad weather I found myself with some spare time on my hand so I decided to look up someone who I knew in Montreal. I was shocked to learn he had passed at age 56.
He seemed to have such bad luck in life. His father died (apparent suicide) when he was in his mid-20's. Then he was diagnosed with kidney disease. His sister donated one of her kidneys and a successful transplant was done. He got married just before turning 30 and had two kids. I never saw him smoke and he kept physically active (tennis, golf, baseball, hockey, etc.) and yet he died of lung cancer.
Just remember that life is short so don't sweat the small stuff.
