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 time you have failed to invest to good
purpose.  It carries over no balance.  It allows no overdraft...

 

 

To realize the value of ONE YEAR,
ask a student who failed a grade.

 

To realize the value of ONE MONTH,
ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.

 

To realize the value of ONE WEEK,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

 

To realize the value of ONE HOUR,
ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

 

To realize the value of ONE MINUTE,
ask a person who missed the train.

 

To realize the value of ONE-SECOND,
ask a person who just avoided an accident.

 

To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND,
ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.

 

Treasure every moment that you have!  Treasure it more because you shared
it with someone special, special enough to spend your time.  Remember,
time waits for no one.  Yesterday is history.  Tomorrow is a mystery.  Today
is a gift.  That's why it's called the present!
