Destiny Quote by Dorian Cox
“Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny--he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally--you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you. Life is the only chance you get, how you live it, what you take from it, how much you give back, a joy and a heartbreak, doing the best with what you have, loving with all of your heart, treating all forms of it with respect, and a wondrous beautiful mystery. You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”
