The Hand You Get

 I am indebted to commenter "Suz" over at Chant du Depart for the following quote.  I do not know them, but hope my attribution makes it back to them.

"Follow your destiny.
You don't have a right to the cards you believe you should be dealt.
You have an obligation to play the hell out of the hand you get."

- (I have seen the quote attributed to a Marcia White and a Cheryl Strayed, and so note them both. Regardless, it is a brilliant quote.)

      Sarge, this may be the single greatest motivational quote to do the best with the life you have I read.

      It does Margi. I am saddened I have not come across it earlier.

      It is STxAR, partially (at least for me) because it can be applied in any and every situation.
