Dreams Quote by Dorian Cox
“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. So live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each, cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements, It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about. Because each day is a new canvas to paint upon. Make sure your picture is full of life and happiness, and at the end of the day you dont look at it and wish you had painted something different.”
