Carpe diem: Sieze the day. With every sunrise come new opportunities to experience the world, to enjoy others and to serve them. It is essential to recognize that we are responsible for choosing and defining our lives. We must be open to growth and change - to pursue learning - from books, other people, introspection, our experiences. We should strive toward being proactive; to look at our options and choose wisely. -Beck and Cable in their book Interpretation for the 21st Century-

We're afraid of living life, therefore we don't experience, we don't see. We don't feel. We don't risk. We don't care! And therefore we don't live - because life means being actively involved. Life means getting your hands dirty. Life means jumping in the middle of it all. Life means falling flat on your face. Life means going beyond yourself - into the stars. - Leo Buscaglia-
