These are words of James Dean.I hope he followed him own words,after all he died so young. What about you?Can you make so many dreams like you never die?and live each one moment of your life like the last one? It's nice to believe it and try to live and dream like these but how easy it is? Can you follow at your life James Dean's words?

Unhappiness lives in the past and the future, there is no unhappiness in the present. What are you unhappy about? Is it about something that might happen in the future or something that happened in the past? When we spend time regretting the past, or worrying about the future, there isn’t room for happiness in the present. “The secret of health for both the mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, not to anticipate troubles, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.” - Buddha My dreams will never ends, but my day is today! Do you see my smile? :))))))))

this is the truth about life , because we can live for 40 years or more as we can die tomorrow or even today , i wish we all think that way so we will be afraid to do anything wrong to any body beside our self and also we have to have hope and live every moment with happiness and great things to do .

Hey, that's how I live! Lol. No, it ain't easy..but it does keep a person happier sometimes it seems. I think it works pretty well for me, 'cause I don't like leaving loose ends..but I don't like giving up either. So everything..with my own efforts included, just wraps things up sooner or later. It's comforting, knowing if I die tomorrow, that I took care of things..yet lived the way I wanted to. ALWAYS dreaming.

oh I know these words..and I can quite agree with them, but of course real life is a bit different from a movie or an actor's best sentence!!! I mean, I am the kind of person who like thinking and dreaming great things..I think that we have to improve each day and that we must think great but of course there is also the fact that we must pay attention to what our ratio is telling us and to what we live and the reality we are in. let's say that I try to combine both sense and sensibily..as for live as you're going to die today..well as a doctor I am perfectly aware of the fact that life is always in danger, that it is so fragile and I learnt that we must be rational and look at the future but we should enjoy the present too because nobody knows what it is going to happen tomorrow..so enjoy tomorrow and do your best each day..but of course I don't read this sentence like..do whatever you want today till you ruin yourself because you can die tomorrow..I think that this is one of the risk beneath this sentence!!1

you got the point my friend...sense and sensibility, romantic and rational side of my soul...all my life is a work towards balance between them!!!

I like this one - "Live each day as if it was your last, and you will find each day worth living for". I have it up on my wall but sad to say, I cannot really do it. When you meditate upon this phrase, the meaning is really overwhelming (at least for me).
