Carpe Diem is a Latin sentence which means, in English, seize the day. It is considered a way of life for millions of people around the world, followed principally by teenagers and young people. This way of life was discussed through a brilliant point of view at the moving picture Dead Poets Society, starred by Robin Williams, Ethan Hawke, and Robert Sean Leonard. The film talks about an extrovert teacher, Mr. Keating (Robin Williams) who, during his poetry classes, tries to make his young pupils think by themselves. Carpe diem, boys: seize the day! Make your lives something extraordinary . With these words he encourages them to make their close dreams come true, whatever their prices. One of the most useful thoughts that may be put in practice during our daily lives with enormous possibilities of changing our day-to-days is the one which was read in the beginning of the Dead Poets Society meetings: I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the essence of life! To put out of me all that was not live, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. Of course that to suck out all the essence of life doesn’t mean to make mistakes, words by Mr. Keating, the captain. Nevertheless, the life is yours, you have to make the possible and the impossible to turn it enjoyable, full of good things and interesting people. But remember you are not a cat, you have just one life. If you do not know what to do with it, please, do not make nonsenses, do not damage it filling it up of superfluous things and bad attitudes, wait the very moment to take the decisions which will probably make your life follow another pathway. At first, let your body and your soul experiment the most common feelings of our today’s society: joy, sadness, love, anger, hope, disappointment, and many others. After, never regret about the things you did, it’s important for your bloom as human being, just do it if you had not acted by yourself, and, the most important: live your life by the way you judge better, but with responsibility and good sense. Remember: you have a marvelous and brilliant future ahead.
