Day 191 of wisdom
“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You must have heard the phrase "your destiny is in your hands", that is as true as truth could be, nothing could be more truer than that. Life may deal with you in ways you don't expect but ultimately you decide what you become by the way you live, the things you do, and the things you did not do. No one in the world has the right to determine what you become except you give them the permission to.
On your journey to becoming, you are the single most important determinant of where you get to, what you do, how you do it, and what you wouldn't do. You are the main actor, and director of the movie of your life. You need no certification, authentication, or approval by anyone else but yourself, whatever you do, or say goes, but you must also be ready to bear the consequences, and benefits of whatever you do, say, or wouldn't do.
Albert Ellis in very profound words which cannot be better put, and so plain, said that “The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.” When you take responsibility for your life, it is a reflection of who you are, and who you are becoming, and whatever you decide to be you will become.
Someone once said, "Not everyone will understand your journey. It is not their journey to make sense of yours." Your journey is uniquely yours, no other person shares your journey, no other person shares your process, no other person shares your story, your destiny is yours to pursue. If you choose to be happy, you will receive happiness. Your purpose, and destiny are your major identities in the world, if you fail to achieve them, your have not really lived. So,live.
