Quote by Paulo Coelho

It (destiny) is what you have always wanted to accomplish. Everyone, when they are young, knows what their destiny is. At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their destiny.

Summary

This quote highlights the idea that destiny is something that individuals inherently know and aspire to achieve from a young age. As children, people have clear dreams and limitless possibilities, unafraid to envision the life they desire. However, as they grow older, societal pressures and self-doubt diminish their belief in realizing their destiny. The quote suggests that there is a mysterious force at play, perhaps symbolizing external influences or internal fears that discourage individuals from pursuing their true path. Ultimately, it emphasizes the importance of overcoming these obstacles and rediscovering faith in one's destiny.
