the brilliant words which I prefer
2007-01-18 23:44
Treasure every moment that you have,because yesterday is
history,tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, andthat's the reason we call it present.Imagine there's a bank which credits your account each morning
$86,400, carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to
keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of
the amount you had failed to use during the day. What would you do?Draw out every cent, every day, of course!Well, each of us has such an account. Its name is Time.Every
morning, time credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it
writes off, as lost, whatever you have failed to put to use it. It
carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft.Each day, time opens a new account for you. Each night, it burns
whatever reamains in the account. If you fail to use up
all of the days's deposits, you can't keep them for tomorrow.
Neither can you draw from what will be put in the next morning.Time's clock runs non-stop. To realize the value of one year, ask a student who has
failed a grade.To realize the value of one month, ask a mother who has given 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 a couple of lovers who can't
wait to see each other.To realize the value of one minute, ask a tourist who has just
missed the train.To realize the value of one second, ask a motorist who has avoided
an accident.To realize the value of one minisecond, ask the athlete who has
just won the silver medal in the Olympics.Treasure every moment that you have. Remember that time always
waites for no one. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery,
today is a gift, and that's the reason why we call it PRESENT.
