Life is short, live it well

Lately, I've been having revelations about what's important, where I want to go and what I want to do. Dave Matthews might sing it, but the idea of "eat, drink, and be merry" has much older roots. One must plan for the future, but not forget to enjoy the present.

Isaiah, Chap 22, verse 13: "Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"

and

Ecclesiastes, Chap 8, verse 15: "For the only good a man can have under the sun is to eat and drink and enjoy himself. That much can accompany him, in exchange for his wealth, through the days of life that God has granted him under the sun."
