I have really been enjoying the NCIS TV series for the past few years. Out of its many episodes, the one titled "Endgame" especially caught my attention due to its closing quote by Special Agent Timothy McGee: "Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined. The path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never, never, allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed, but it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men, and dies as a single one." I believe this to be a profound statement that reminds me of the ancient Hindu philosophy about Karma (A Sanskrit word that means action), which also related that one's destiny can be altered by the actions one takes in his or her life, and so one can choose to pursue any professional goal in life, and change the goal if desired, but he or she will die as the same entity born into human existence.
