An off-duty member of Spain’s National Police became a hero after rescuing a man who lost his balance on the platform and fell on the tracks at Puerta del Angel Station of the Madrid Subway.

I found another article relating to seizing the moment in a New York Times wedding announcement of a 55-year-old widow and a 62-year-old widower.

“When you reach a certain age in life, you’ve had numbers of life experiences and the old adage of ‘seize the day’ becomes all the more meaningful,” he said. “We wanted to be together in an enduring way.”
