Something To Think About!


Imagine that you had won the following prize in a contest:

Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400.00 in your private
account for your use. However, this prize had rules, just as any game
has certain rules.

The first set of rules would be:

Everything that you didn't spend during each day would be taken
away from you.

You may not simply transfer money into some other account.

You may only spend it.

Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with
another $86,400.00 for that day.

The second set of rules:

The bank can end the game without warning; at any time it can
say, Its over, the game is over! It can close the account and you will
not receive a new one.

What would you personally do?

You would buy anything and everything you wanted, right?

Not only for yourself, but for all people you love, right?

Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly
spend it all on yourself, right?

You would try to spend every cent, and use it all, right?

ACTUALLY, this GAME is REALITY!

Each of us is in possession of such a magical bank.We just cant
seem to see it.

The MAGICAL BANK is TIME!

Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift of
life, and when we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is NOT
credited to us.

What we haven't lived up that day is forever lost.

Yesterday is forever gone.

Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve
your account at any time....WITHOUT WARNING.

SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds?

Aren't they worth so much more than the same amount in dollars?

Think about that, and always think of this:

Enjoy every second of your life, because time races by so much
quicker than you think.

So take care of yourself, and enjoy life!

Wishing you a wonderfully beautiful day!!!
 
Very cool Ross!!! Makes one stop and think! I'll try to spend less time napping today and more time getting something done (without overdoing it of course). Oh how true about time flying by... Ughhh... Can remember my son being born like it was yesterday... Only that was 23+ years ago....
 
I blinked and missed the last year. Either that or I was just too tired. ;)
 
Without our health, riches are worthless other than to try to achieve the best health possible.
Time........ priceless.
