This is probably my most favorite quote and my mantra. I believe quite strongly that, you can achieve any goal that you can conceive and believe in, and that if you commit to working toward making it happen, it will. The beauty of following your dreams is the places they will take you. You might have something in mind when you start on your journey, and you may expect to proceed down a specific path. Sometimes that happens, but sometimes your dreams will take you somewhere completely different from your original plans. When this happens, you have to embrace the natural ebb and flow of life. It’s like they say…”Life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.” I believe that everything happens for a reason, so with that in mind, I suggest we believe in reasons unknown, and make the most of what we’ve been dealt. The unexpected “detours” on the path of life can be completely beautiful in how they contribute to our growth, knowledge, wisdom and experience, and often bring unexpected gifts of inspiration and wonderful blessings in disguise.
I love that quote! I was wearing my Thoreau shirt earlier :]
