Carpe Diem - Seize The Day

Carpe Diem (Seize The Day) - Horace 

 Today is the first and last day of forever. - Stephenie Meyer (Twilight Saga) 

 Life is now. There was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be. - Eckhart Tolle

"Seize The Day" (Carpe Diem) is sometimes interpreted as an invitation to party irresponsibly - without regard for the consequences. My interpretation of Carpe Diem is to seize the day in the sense of honoring the importance and sanctity of each day we live. It is so easy to delay the important parts of living until another day. But don't do that... Do something truly important Today. Make Today count. Today - each Today - is the most important day of your life.
