no guarantees.......................

"Best time of the day to be out there, though.  You wake up before the sun, see a new day unfold right in front of you on the water.  Ain't none of us guaranteed another hour of living, don't care who you are or how much you got.  Might as well get up early and enjoy what time you got left, I say."

You seize the day. You don’t let the day seize you.
