Who You Are Born To Be



"That which each can do best, none but his Maker can teach him. Where is the master who could have taught Shakespeare? Where is the master who could have instructed Franklin, or Washington, or Bacon, or Newton? . . . Shakespeare will never be made by the study of Shakespeare. Do that which is assigned you, and you cannot hope too much or dare too much."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson


Each of us are born with gifts, talents and special skills that makes each of us uniquely human and an individual.

However, many people go through life, merely existing and letting the mundane activities totally take over their days.

Days turn into months, months turn into years and all of a sudden, we look back and found that, alas, we have not lived our lives fully.

It takes courage for each of us to discover these special gifts and talents that God has given us. It needs the silence in our soul to listen to the tiny voice, whispering that we are destined for greater things. It takes awareness to be bold and pursue our destiny.

Therefore, take the time to be aware of your calling.

And when you find your calling, go forth and serve humanity with consciousness, compassion and humility.
