Thoreau for breakfast

"Most people live lives of quiet desperation, and die with the song still in their hearts."
-  Henry David Thoreau

I love that quote.  I love it because it inspires me to "let it all out" and reach as high and as far as I can.  Because when the day comes that I look back and wonder if I wasted my life or not, I want to be able to say "not a second".  

Even as I type that, I worry that I haven't lived enough of life today, and I have to remind myself that sleeping in front of the television is just as awesome as running a well managed company.  Do what you have to.....but insist on living life on your terms.  It is the only substance you really have in this world.
