at the end of the day

     "Seize life! Eat bread with gusto, 
   Drink wine with a robust heart. 
   Oh yes—God takes pleasure in your pleasure! 
   Dress festively every morning. 
   Don't skimp on colors and scarves. 
   Relish life with the spouse you love 
   Each and every day of your precarious life. 
   Each day is God's gift. It's all you get in exchange 
   For the hard work of staying alive. 
   Make the most of each one! 
   Whatever turns up, grab it and do it. And heartily! 
   This is your last and only chance at it, 
   For there's neither work to do nor thoughts to think 
   In the company of the dead, where you're most certainly headed."
~Ecc 9:7-10 (The Message)

When it's all said and done, I want to be remembered as the girl who knew how to "Seize the Day"! 


Have a great day!
xoxo

Perfect Monday morning post! (as opposed to great post!) ;) Seriously, I'm inspired to get myself moving. What a beautiful song I hadn't heard. I thought at first you were posting the other "Seize the Day" from the Disney movie Newsies.

I also love your new blog look. I usually read your posts in the Google reader. This is much better "in person."

Happy Monday, my dear friend! Love ya.

What is the best job I've ever had?
