CARPE DIEM!

I agree with this famous Latin saying, but only to a certain extent. Seizing(plucking) the day and making the most of your time here on earth is a great idea, but people can take it too far. It's one thing to take chances on things that might reap a benefit or at least be semi-harmless fun, but taking absolutely every chance that comes your way regardless of risks, is dangerous. I think that there is a healthy balance between taking risks and having fun and also staying on the safe side and being responsible. That being said, I wish I could lead a more Carpe Diem way of life, it just seems like it would be so much more interesting and exciting, don't you think?

Being a risk taker and whooping it up is fun, yet tiring. My teens and twenties were like this, and although I miss it at times, I am also happy with my quiet existence now, and I'm rested. The balance is key.

Great post. 20/20 points.
