    The Value of 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 have failed to invest 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 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 pre-mature baby.

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

    To realize the value of ONE DAY, ask a daily wage laborer with kids to feed.

    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 MILLI-SECOND, 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 a mystery.
    Today is a gift.
    That's why it's called the present!

      I seem to be overdrawn quite a bit lately.
      Do my issues make my butt look big?

            How much is every tear worth? I shed a lot today. Hope they are worth some gold or gas! Great post.

              and by the way, the time issue resounds with me.

              No wonder I feel so pressed for time!
              If you do not live the life you believe, you will believe the life you live.
