Carpe Diem...!!

I have read 2 books in the last one week and both of them were about people suffering from Cancer.

The first book was fiction-My sister’s keeper.

The second one was the autobiography of Lance Armstrong-“It’s not about the Bike”.

As I read the book, with every word I read, I felt ashamed of myself for worrying about tiny, petty things in life, when there were people out there like Lance Armstrong who are conquering diseases like Cancer.

We give up too easily. We resign to “God’s will” too often. We choose the easier path rather than struggle. Sometimes, accepting that defeat is tiny and at other times as huge as dying of Cancer.

I have personally never fought back.  I think I never found anything worth fighting for. But, I think I am a reason good enough. My dreams are reasons worth fighting for. For once, I am going to stop making excuses and fight. And survive any blows that I get on the way. I am not going to be afraid of failing and go after my dreams. No matter what people say or think.

Carpe diem means “seize the day”. I am going to seize every day like it is an opportunity.

People are going to be real assholes and tell me everything that is wrong with me and tell me a million reasons, I will not succeed. I am going to stay quiet and tell myself that I will because I want to and that more than anything else.

Carpe diem...!! :)
