I set up a few interviews asking people of different ages about chance.
These were the questions I asked:
Do you believe in chance?
Do you believe in fate?
Have you ever had a 'What If' moment?
Do you ever wish you did anything differently in your life?
Any changes you would make to your life if you lived it over again?
The answers I collected were very different and very interesting. A few people told me stories about what would of happened if they had done something differently in their life which could of had dramatic consequences. These are two of the most contrasting answers i got from two people that are about 70 years apart.

No
Have you ever had a 'What If' moment?
Yes. I was engaged at an early age but I called off the engagement as I thought he was having an affair. I then married another man who unfortunately died 14 years ago. Last year I was invited to a school reunion and bumped into my first love, we are now dating and about to move in together, he was never having the affair in the first place.
Do you ever wish you did anything differently in your life?
No, I've lived a very full and happy life.
Any changes you would make to your life if you lived it over again?
Have my hip replacement earlier in life!!
Spend more time with my children and grandchildren.
Peace in the world.
