About this Quote

This quote by Søren Kierkegaard speaks to the idea that the most significant and beautiful experiences in life are not found in books, stories, and even seen with our eyes, but rather, they are to be lived. He is suggesting that the most fulfilling experiences come from living life to its max and accepting the minutes that come our way. He is motivating us to take dangers, to be open to new experiences, and to make the most of our lives. He is also suggesting that the most stunning things in life are not always concrete, but rather, they are found in the moments we share with others, the memories we make, and the lessons we learn. By living life to its maximum, we can find happiness and beauty in the daily moments and create long lasting memories that will stick with us forever.
