Carpe Diem

How much time do we spend worrying about tomorrow when we should be living today?! I've heard the phrase, "Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday." Too much time is spent worrying. Worry wastes your time and gives you ulcers. The opposite of worry (or fear) is faith. I remember the lyrics to a song I heard when I was young, "Don't worry about tomorrow, just think about today, the Lord is right beside you, to help you on your way. Have faith, hope and charity. That's the way to live successfully. How do I know?, the Bible tells me so." Matthew tells us to take care of today for tomorrow will take care of itself. In Latin we read, Carpe Diem, seize the day. Cherish yesterday, live today, dream tomorrow...
