In this quote Emerson is driving home the truth that the journey and act of achievement is the true gem of life. We all should have goals and visions and it’s natural human nature to be driven to accomplish. Too often in today’s busy world we are caught in the “want it now” syndrome. This quote reminds us that we need to enjoy our journey and through persistence and living a life of love and kindness we will find that ultimately the prize was in the journey.
Life is a journey, not a destination.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
