One quote From the Philosophers of transcendentalism that stuck with me is from Emerson. “The only person you are destined to be is the person you decide to be.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson. I like this quot because it relates to the idea that in order to be the person you want to be you only have to just follow that path to be that person. You should follow your heart, and you can be anyone you want to be. Your destiny is only dependent on what you what it to be.
