Living the Life You Have Imagined

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.  Live the life you have imagined." -- Henry David Thoreau

I was thinking about that quote this morning... a few months ago I copied/laminated it for a friend who is moving to Thailand next month.  It's a move he's had in the planning stages for a year.  I thought about my own move to the tropics eons ago, a dream I lived with for seven years that carried me through some very cold winters.  This morning when I went outside to water my plants and gaze at the ocean, I said to myself, "I AM living the life I imagined."

Are YOU living the life you imagined?  How can you make it happen?  

As Thoreau also said:

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."
