Carpe Diem

Babe Ruth once said, “Everyone gets at least one chance in life to do something great. Most of them never take that chance, either because they’re scared, or they can’t see it when it spits on their spikes.” Ruth knew what it was like to do something great. He lived to seize the day, however, his philosophy on it, is just one, upon many. John Keating, Robert Herrick, and Andrew Marvell all thrived …

…all saw a different purpose in it, and they all had different visions of when and where this philosophy was meant to be preached. Although their ideas are different, they all branched out from the same tree, and all three are believers in going for it all in life. “Carpe Diem” is a powerful phrase, and although it’s meaning is both provocative and eye-opening, it ignites each soul that it touches, a different way.
