Find Your Eternity in Each Moment

"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment."

 

-Henry David Thoreau, 1817-1862

 

This simple stone in the Sleepy Hollow Cemetary in Concord, MA, marks the grave of the great poet. Fellow literary giants Ralph Waldo Emerson, Lousia May Alcott, and Nathaniel Hawthorne are buried nearby in an area known as "Authors' Ridge."

 

With Halloween fast approaching it seemed like a perfect time to visit Sleepy Hollow and pay my respects.
