Yes, whatever you do is your already decided story line.
That was my question. According to it is a decided story line so we only have illusion of choices.

well.
just think of yourself as a free fell ball rolling down the endless hill until it reaches the end.
If its an endless hill how will it reach the end in the first place? lol

its a bit off topic but according to Islam God was there forever but my question is was there a beginning? There is always a begininning?
P.S: Don't get me wrong I am Muslim. Just clearing some questions from my mind.

There can be no end but there is always a beginning. Take time for example
time doesnt exist.

its just a word to refer the living revolving self-working world around you.......

Your prayer is irrelevant because my fate is already decided as you said earlier

1st quote.
oh and be sure life doesnt get itself some of those american-style MRAP, they'd be one tough things to destory unless you invest some good weaponry.

2nd quote.
That is fate.
your fate has me (Which my fate has already written to give you a prayer to help search your answer) giving you a prayer to give you some courage. its already written. courage will boost you in your journey.

There are few things we don't have control over
1) Where and when we are born
2) When and where we die
there are a couple more but I don't remember
Rest, all of the decisions in life are person's free will. God may guide you towards good decisions and then there is luck.
You may also be manipulated by devil. But even with these factors included you always have a choice and your decisions have bearing on the outcome.
As to God knows everything, Yes He does. But that does not imply he knows because he has decided everything for you. He know because He knows there is nothing more to it.

Also you ask about the beginning of God, Qur'an answered this question.
Allah Does not have a beginning or the end. He has always existed and will always exist.
Don't relate time with Allah, He created time , you can't compare them.

Under the Mercy of the Creator
a common misconception which leads many to believe in 'fate'/'qismat'..
but i don't think it is so..
i believe in ALLAH, the master/cherisher/sustainer of the world(s)
ALLAH has given us choices to be chosen by us.. what ever we shall sow is that we shall reap in hereafter,
their is no predetermination accept for the things ALLAH has promised in quran and things like death..
99% are up to us.. the prove of this is that ALLAH does 'justice', only the sins of the sinner shall be accounted for, the sins the sinner "did" because he also had a choice not to do it
it's so logical.. basically this is the meaning of our test over here, if every thing in our test was predetermined then their would not be any need for the test and for what purpose would their be heaven or hell.
ALLAH watches over his creation, he is the ultimate savior and he is the watchful protector.. that's what i believe but only ALLAH knows best.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
