"Do not lose hold of your dreams or aspirations. For if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live."
-Henry David Thoreau
I think this is a very beautiful quote, and very true. We often find ourselves lost when things don't turn out the way we wished them to do. Or when a sudden turn of events changes our nicely planned life. So when it says; don’t lose hold of your dreams or aspirations; I see like this:
Dreams can change, take you in a different direction than you planned, but does that make it less of a dream or more? I think more, or I believe :) Because, the road we sometimes end up taking in life sometimes give us more than we wished for, we just don’t see it because we are so busy looking down the road we didn't get to take. So hold on to your dreams, believe in them and they will come true, just maybe not in the way YOU planned them to do. If you give up, well, the quote says it beautifully: if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live.
Don't lose yourself in your own attempt to seek happiness and success, believe that you will find it :)
