It is what it is. I do not believe it is designed by some being with its own will - but there are times when a coincidence is simply too great, wouldn't you say?
How I would define it is events preordained, formed in the very fabric of reality at the time of its creation. But, I don't suppose you would subscribe to such romantic notions of the world, would you.
Yes, I suppose "romantic" would be the right word for such suppositions. However, there is truth in what you say. For example, in every world, humans will destroy themselves if pestilence or natural disasters don't do it first. One could say it's written into their very DNA.

Yes, I suppose. And yet the universe is full of great coincidences. But if that's what your definition of "destiny" is, I can't fault it.
