Carpe Diem

Today we will read the Carpe Diem poets of the early 1700s. They felt that it was important to live each day as if it were your last. If you could do just one thing before you "go," what would it be? Would you climb Mt. Everest? Would you spend it with friends? Go to the movies? Nap?

I realize that this is a morbid subject for a Monday, but it is valid. We all need to realize that each day is precious and we're not gauranteed a long life. These poets realized this and wanted us to get the message that life should be celebrated daily. How are you going to celebrate today?
