Biological destiny is the material which must be shaped by the free human spirit. This, from the point of view of man, is what it exists for.*
Viktor Frankl
Imperfect and proud of it.**
Seth Godin
You are irreplaceably imperfect –
Viktor Frankl’s words,
Out of which your creativity and beauty emerges;
There are perhaps two requirements:
A determination to overcome the disablements and
obstacles of your destiny, and
an endeavour worthy of endless pursuit^ –
Which may emerge from the struggle to
shape your destiny.
