Why the dash in Carpediem-life.com?

Why the dash in Carpediem-life.com?

I would love to offer some profound explanation as to why carpediem-life has a dash in address.  Truth be told, my first choice of carpediemlife.com was already taken.  So, in true Carpe Diem Life fashion, I EVALUATED the reality of the situation, was PERSISTENT in seeking IMPROVED alternatives, then CHOSE a different DIRECTION.

What immediately came to mind was my tombstone.  More precisely, a poem The Dash written by Linda Ellis.  According to her web site, the poem has been enjoyed by millions around the world -- and changed their lives!

It’s a beautiful poem about the dash between the date of our birth and the date of our death.  The dash is the between years.




Every day that you CHOOSE to consciously seize the day,  you may not be adding more days to your lifelong dash, but you’ll certainly be adding more life to your days.

How will you seize your dash today?
