TIME
Imagine
there is a bank that credits your account each morning with
$86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every
evening deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use
during the day.
What would
you do? Draw out every cent, of course! Each of us has such a
bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with
86,400 seconds.
Every
night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you haven't
invested to good purpose.
It carries
over no balance.
It allows
no overdraft.
Each day
it opens a new account for you.
Each night
it burns the remains of the day.
If you
fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours
There is
no going back.
There is
no drawing against the "tomorrow".
You must
live in the present on today's deposits.
Invest it
so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness, and
success!
The clock
is running. Make the most of today.
To realise
the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade.
To realise the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth
to a pre-mature baby.
To realise the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly
newspaper .
To realise the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are
waiting to meet.
To realise the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the
train.
To realise the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who just
avoided an accident.
To realise the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won
a silver medal in the Olympics.
Treasure
every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you
shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your
time. And remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is
history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's
called the present!!
