CARPE DIEM: SEIZE THE DAY

fld2

Our friend Pete McGraw often says “today is a big day”. When people ask why, he says that every day is a big day. As he writes on his blog, Pete saw his parents die well before their life expectancies, he saw his house, which sits a mile above sea level, suddenly flooded. It reminded him that life is short and can change for the worse very quickly.

Something to keep in mind when deciding about what risks to take and how much weight to put on the distant future.
