Carpe diem
Carpe diem!
Seize the day!
Throw all your worries
And fears away!
Gaudeamus igitur!
Let us rejoice!
It's time to celebrate
Come raise your voice!
Memento mori!
Remember you will die!
Live life now
for time does fly!
Ad extremum!
To the extreme!
For you must be brave
And dare to dream!
Carpe diem is the idea of seizing the day. It's living life to the fullest, taking every opportunity you have to make a memory. It's about getting out of your comfort zone, doing something worthwhile.
Sometimes I feel like every day is the same, and that I'm not seizing the day, but it's important to seize tomorrow, too. Little things that I do today can help me succeed tomorrow.
And it's not always the big things. Carpe diem can include climbing Mt. Everest, but it could also be getting out of your comfort zone or doing something different in little ways, like talking to someone you don't usually, signing up for a volunteer event, using your time wisely.
Carpe diem!
