I’m not one of those weekend warrior types. TGIFers. Work hard – play hard. There was a time, but over the past 15 years, I’ve learned another cliche “Carpe Diem” which I’ve adapted into a bible-based mantra of love God, love others.
With this as my foundation, there is no room for simply seizing the day because there is so much more to serve.
Life lesson #62 – Seize the day, but love God and others first.
