Question

Answer

Samantha,

Here is a dictionary definition:

FATE implies an inevitable and usually an adverse outcome .    Something bad will happen for sure!

DESTINY implies something foreordained and often suggests a great or noble course or end . 

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fate

Also, each word is often used in special expressions.   They are popular in fantasy movies because fantasy movies talk about destiny and fate a lot.

You are destined for greatness! (You will become someone very important in the future)
Now, you will meet your fate!  Now, you will meet your doom!  -  Now, you will die.   (The villian, the bad guy says this.)
Your fate is sealed.   There is nothing you can do to change the outcome of your life.

In addition to the definitions, when I hear the word destiny, I have a positive reaction.  :-)
When I hear the word fate, I have a negative reaction.  :-(

Answer

Hi, some people believe that destiny may be seen either as a fixed sequence of events that is inevitable and unchangeable, or that individuals choose their own destiny by choosing different paths throughout their life.Destiny is fate, fate is destiny.

Answer

Fate and destiny is something which happens beyond your own control or doing.  The difference is; for fate, the event has happened but for destiny the event will happen in the future.
Examples:
It is fate that John married Mary although they live world apart.
With the way things are happening it is their destiny that they are going to get married.
