THE EIGHTIES

VERY GOOD FOLKS!

CARPE DIEM


THE TEXT PRESENTED ALONGSIDE WITH THE VIDEO. VERY CREATIVE.

Carpe Diem, o nome do poema já descreve o poema em sí.
Cada dia é único, devemos fazer de cada momento, unico.
E assim, fazer de nossa vida, algo especial.
Só vivemos uma vez, então devemos fazer valer a pena.
Dance, grite, chore,dance faça o que te faz feliz.. 
A sua felicidade depende apenas de você. 
Se você não for feliz hoje,quem vai ser por você?
Você é dono de sua felicidade,não deixe ninguem tirar isso de você.
Não deixe a sociedade impor o que é certo, o que é errado... 
O que deve te fazer feliz ou não.
Vá em frente.. Não desista de si mesmo.
Sua essencia é unica ..
Faça da tristeza confete. Jogue para o ar e deixe o vento levar.. 
Sonhar faz a vida mais feliz, mais bonita, mais esperançosa.
E voce? ja foi feliz hoje?

Isadora recitou
