No, praise Eru. Nothing "just happens" in Middle-earth, least of all the destruction of the Ring.
"Some other will than the Ring's was present. I can only say that Bilbo was meant to find the Ring, and not by its maker." - Gandalf, Book I, Chapter II
"No, chance brought me then, if chance you call it." - Tom Bombadil, Book I, Chapter VII
"I think this task has been appointed for you, Frodo, and if you do not find the way, no one will." - Elrond, Book II, Chapter II
"A chance-meeting, as we say in Middle-earth." - Gandalf, Appendix A
