Is life mapped out for us

I think, all that happens is every single moment you create changes everything for yourself and everybody else.

I.e. Me typing this has changed the course of my day, and subsequently, the days of anybody reading it.

Certain situations in life are not in our own hands as we cannot alter fate IMO. However, I believe we generally have a conscious choice on which path to take in life. I've been up a few dead ends, but hey-ho. If I ponder on something I cannot decide on, I try and sleep on it and let my gut feeling kick in. Works most times.

Millions of years ago a little amoeba unconsciously decided to turn right instead of left, preventing it from being eaten by a predictor thus securing my entire ancestry.
Just think about that. The odds of you and me being here are astronomical.

Interesting dilemma, if you could go back in time to kill Hitler, thus saving millions of lives, but would cause your own life never to exist. Would you? Don't think many people would.

If its mapped out whoever created the map has a pretty sick sense of humour

If it is then somebody somewhere has one fucked up sense of humour!

No

100% correct ... we live a totally 'random' existence that any minor occurrence can effect with sometimes dramatic consequences.
The flap of a butterfly's Wings and all that.

I think you make your own fortunes based on the decisions you make. Everything else is coincidence.
