carpe diem

I couldn’t find anything interesting to watch on TV at home the other day, so I settled on a show of Phineas and Ferb. It was a normal episode where they were up to something and Candace was trying her best for their mother to find about their “project,” while their pet Perry was trying to stop Dr. Doofenshmirtz from working his latest whatever-ator. Nothing exciting actually.
But at the end, I couldn’t help but sit up and notice the song that the stepbrothers and the rest of the show’s cast were singing. It was catchy and the lyrics reminded me of a message that our teacher/priest (who gave me and my classmates a retreat during our high school senior year) told us.

Well we hope you all enjoyed the show
Hope it was not anti-climatic
Now there's something we want you to know
And we don't want to sound didactic
But if there's one thing we can say
I know it sounds a bit cliché
There's no such thing
As just an ordinary day

And you don't have to build a roller coaster
To find your own way to make the most of these days of summer
And dance to the beat of a different drummer
Just grab those opportunities when you see 'em
'Cause every day's a brand new day, you gotta Carpe
Diem

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....

And you don't have to build a roller coaster
To find your own way to make the most of every minute
No more waiting for the right time, you're in it
Just grab those opportunities when you see 'em
'Cause every day's a brand new day, baby, carpe diem
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....
Ooh
Every day's a brand new day, baby, carpe diem
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....
Every day's a brand new day
Baby, carpe diem
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh....
Every day's a brand new day
Carpe diem


Happy Easter, everyone!
