Zeno was a main philosopher of the eleatic greek school that tought that nothing moves (Parmenides' "All is One"), and that there was no void in nature.
Now, considering physics demostrations today, we know, by the principle of uncertainty by Heisenberg (we cannot know where an electron is at the same time as knowing where is his wave direction), that nature moves in anarchic and unpredictable reasons.
There is no destiny, in my opinion, as thought by Zeno.
Another issue is if we enjoy absolute freedom in our lives..., so that Christianity is right in saying that God condemns bad behaviours in an eternal Hell, which I think is introducing bad morals (like soul's transmigration depending on their previous moral behaviour) into Spirit, which by itself means "freedom" to move and fly and dream and imagine.
