You Make Your Destiny

Everyone is born in different circumstances and with varying privileges.

Some have all the material wealth, while others have none at all. Yet, many fall in between.

Some are born with talent, and some need time to discover their talent. Most others spend their lives searching, exploring and experimenting with different things.

Some are born with beauty, while others are ashamed of their appearance. Yet, beauty is diverse and is dependent on society.

It does not matter what you are born with. It does not matter who your parents are, what your lineage is, or how much talent you possess.

What matters most is who you grow up to be. Who you choose to become.

Only you know what you want. Only you know what is best for you.

When you choose the thing you love most to do, it becomes the seed of your destiny. Don't ever apologise for choosing your path or taking a stand on the things you care about most.

It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be. JK Rowling
