The Time Bank

The Time Bank
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 the bank 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 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 frinds 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.

Treasure every moment that you have! And reassure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time.

Remember that time waits for no one.
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.
That's why it's called the present!
