  • Sunday Morning (66): Revisiting Carpe Diem

    Posted by paul-met-debbie on June 17, 2022 at 1:35 pm

    Two weeks ago my Sunday morning contemplation was about the aphorism “Carpe Diem”. “Seize the day” is the most common understanding of this. I offered three quotes about getting older, birth and death, but on close inspection these were also about another aphorism, called “Memento Mori”.

    So I revisited the subject and wrote a Tale about it, this time focused specifically on all the possible different interpretations of Carpe Diem. Should we seize the day, or embrace it? That is the question. Or is there even another possibility?

    You can find all the answers on our website here.

    Have a lovely Sunday!

    Paul

    The other side of the coin/birth and death interpretation is my favorite. The end is inevitable, so take this moment to breathe, to love, to enjoy, to exist. ♥
