"Plunge boldly into the thick of life!"

~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
One step achieved today. And as Ralph Waldo Emmerson said, ""Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
Well spoken, old man. My day is done and a bright new day will dawn soon. I will only leave myself with this sage advice:
"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, this is no other life but this."
~Henry David Thoreau
