Connected

The first line I choose from the poem Carpe Diem was, " Let water heal your body. Thinking of bathing as a ritual of new beginnings." I like this line because I feel like it speaks to me that every day is a new day and I should let the water wash my body as I begin my new day. Let everything be new and enjoy every second of it. I feel connected to this because I try to start my day as a new beginning for me every day. I next one I choose was " Greet your ancestors in our native tongue, let them guide you to the places of your origin, an island in the sun, our home now only in our dreams." I like this because it shows how important culture is and you should remember them. I feel connected to it because I try to stay connected to my culture when I am away from it.
