I dunno about meant to be... but I've also never put much thought to that kind of thing.
[ Determinism didn't jive with Musashi. ]
If you'd asked my dad, I was meant to be a good daughter, married off to another Fujiwara branch, honor a husband and home, have kids, that kind of thing.
At least, he would have preferred I learn the jitte over the sword.
[ But she also understood, on some level. Because any time she wound up in a new world, her first question was "what am I meant to be doing here?" but the answer was almost always "help Ritsuka, any way I can", and, well... ]
My Master isn't here... neither is yours... neither is any force you could use for guidance. So it's gonna be tough. But I think the first hump is getting over this idea that you're "meant" to be anything. We may be Heroic Spirits, but we still have free will.
