Carpe diem! 

A Latin phrase which means......Seize The Day!
Have you ever really thought about it?  I mean we all know what it means, but do we all know how to apply it to our lives?  It makes me think of another Latin phrase, Momento mori which means.......Remember that you ARE mortal.  None of us mortal humans will live forever on this earth.  I truly believe that if we all were to Carpe diem, EVERYDAY the world would be a totally awesome place.  I mean really think about it.  How many of us awake in the morning to the sound of an annoying alarm and our first thought is......"Oh crap, I feel like pulling the covers over my head and sleeping for a few more hours!"  Do any of us ever awake when the alarm goes off and say....."YES, I cannot wait to see what opportunities this day holds for me!"

My challenge to myself from this moment on, is to think on these two Latin phrases each and every day as often as possible. I am not going to live forever so I am going to SEIZE THE DAY!  I'm going to start actively looking for the opportunities that are put in front of me to make each day a remarkable day.  And at night when I rest my head on my pillow and open up my SuDoKu book, I'm going to write in the margins all the opportunities I was given that day and wether or not I seized them.

What are your thotz?
