"Nuestra vida más verdadera es cuando estamos despiertos en sueños"
— Henry David Thoreau
Simplified Meaning:
Living our best and most genuine life happens when we follow our dreams and passions. Imagine someone who loves painting but works at a job they dislike just to pay the bills. If they manage to find a way to make painting their main job, they will feel happier and more fulfilled. They are awake, in the sense that they are living their day-to-day life, but they are also living their dream because they are doing what they truly love. This is about finding a way to bring your deepest desires and passions into your everyday reality, so you feel alive and true to yourself. To apply this idea, think about what makes you excited and find ways to incorporate more of that into your life. Even if you cannot do it full-time, dedicating some time to your passions can make you feel more happy and authentic.
