Live in the Present

“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.” —-Henry David Thoreau

This is my senior quote and it is one of my most favorite quotes. Everyone daydreams sometimes since not every wish can be satisfied. Daydreaming may be able provide people with a way to get away with their real lives and be kings or queens who dominate the world in their imagination. However, they must realize that dream is always a dream if you do not live in the present and work hard for it. Present, remember, is the only thing you can get hold of.
