“Carpe diem.”
– Horace
This morning my husband awoke at 4 a.m.—a rarity while traveling. “Do you want to see the sunrise?” he asked. For a split second, I considered staying in the cozy bed, but then I thought about the opportunity I might miss. “I’m in,” I responded. Ten minutes later, we were walking on Prague’s hauntingly beautiful Charles Bridge. Pink clouds illuminated by the yellow-orange sun served as the backdrop for structures built centuries before Columbus sailed. Usually packed with tourists, the bridge was nearly empty, giving us the feeling that we had our own private viewing.
When have you “seized the day” by saying yes to a rewarding opportunity?
