This document discusses the Latin phrase "Carpe Diem" which means "seize the day". It originated from a poem by Horace where he advises his friend Lefkonoe to seize the day and not worry about tomorrow. The phrase encourages people to value each day and live fully in the present without taking life for granted. It later became well-known from the 1989 film "Dead Poets Society" and has appeared in songs. The overall message is to appreciate each day and make the most of life as it is happening rather than being anxious about the future.
