A famous phrase from Horace's Latin poem, "Carpe diem" is usually translated as "seize the day." We should all "eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die", in other words, make the most of what you have in front of you because life is too short, and time waits for no one. At the same time, it is more than likely that you aren't going to die tomorrow, so it's also important to plan for the road ahead. Sometimes, you can't help but worry for the future, and it's also a part of growing up and being responsible. So how do you live your life? Are you someone who prefers to live for the moment or plan for the future?
i work hard for my future and dont think of the death... Maybe u will live 100 years?? U wont know when you die, thats true... but anyway i think you should think and live in present and work for your future.
lol 'Dead Poet Society'. Loved that movie Answering the question, I live for the moment. The knowledge that death is a guarantee (despite advances in technology/science/medicine) is enough to put anything in perspective. Carpe diem!
Live your life to the fullest .. that`s what i always believed in .. .. I dun want to regret anything i`ve ever done in life so.. Like they say Work Hard Party hard Heal the past, Live the present, and Dream the future -rockon
-nono these are the kinds of comments that would get you in trouble by your GF. don't make me snitch on you
This is too much for my innocent ears I loved that movie too! One of my favorite movies of all time I think Back to topic: I tend to plan ahead into the future. I don't believe in living for the moment.
haha! innocent ears? i think not: if Peach knows about Orgies, i don't think she is innocent at all. Someone has been pwned
For the longest time I was a "live for the day" kind of guy. I'd blow my dough on anything and everything, just incase I wasn't around to enjoy it tomorrow. Now, however, after realizing that I've got many plans in my future and no money to make them a reality, I've been forced to begin saving up. I've been doing pretty good lately, although it's been hard with all the crazy boxing day sales still going on. So many DVDs on sale... I feel like I need them all!
Umm... I had to use my Oxford dictionary to define that word. And thanks to that thread, I now know 1 dirty word.
i believe the living in the moment also because well i saw 9/11 happen in front of me and did anyone think that was going to happen?? when they went to work??
Enjoy like you'll die tomorrow, live like you'll live forever. Do what you like, as long as you are sure you won't regret it in the long run. But heck, I am a hedonist. Who cares about tomorrow when there's enough alcohol.
