Carpe Diem

It is one of those days, that brings out a lot of stacked up emotions. And the trigger, was the revelation behind the epic song 'A Change of Seasons' (ACoS) which is 23:08 minutes long. ACoS has always inspired me and seared me into pieces,all of the times I've heard it. Every single time of listening to it and it stirs my soul/emotions in a way that perhaps no other song has.

The simple principle of Carpe Diem (Seize the day) is what opened my eyes today. We tend to take life for granted. So also the people around us, forgetting that life is short. It is extremely essential that we let our loved ones know how much we love them every single day, for who knows what tomorrow may bring.

It sometimes is simply not enough to say, 'Oh, they know how much I love them'. A hug, a smile, kind words go a long long way in cementing relationships and reinforcing bonds like never before. Many thanks to ACoS for being a revelation today.

And yes, a lot of carpe diem'ing is to be done. No point hiding all those emotions (the positive ones) and stacking them up. Here's to a free flow of love, faith and all things good!

CARPE DIEM indeed!!
