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 ALL OF IT, 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 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! 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 a mystery. Today is a gift.
That's why it's called the
present!!!
