Carpe Diem common meaning is "seize the day", which means that you must enjoy the day and maximize every moment as if it were the last. The idea is to have a productive well-lived day.

The phrase is in Latin, and was termed by the Roman poet Horace in his novel "Odes".

The "Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd", written by Sr. Walter Raleigh, refers to a young female nymph happy vision of life. For her, a true relationship must be based on loyalty and commitment, not like the shepherd's materialistic vision.

The nymph is always looking for something permanent that makes her happy, to "seize the day", even though they would be like dreaming: to be forever young, permanent happiness and true love.

What she means is that she really dreams of a joyful life with the shepherd on her side, but she realizes that he cannot afford her that because of his different and materialistic vision of life.

wlad13 [49]

Chalk is a white powder made of soft limestone called calcium carbonate. It can be found in both a powder substance or a more firm rock-like form. One use of the powder form is for gymnasts. They use the calcium carbonate powder from to protect their hands from blisters when doing work on the bars, pomel horse, or rings. The harder form of calcium carbonate can sometimes be found in the shape of a long round cylinder and is used as a writing implement on blackboards.
