Importance of Time

The following is not related to Chechnya, nonetheless is interesting philosophical approach to time, its value and preciousness.

Imagine there is a bank which credits your account each
morning with $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, of course!

Well, everyone 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 records 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!

Аватар для ArabeLLa
Yeah, this is reality. Time never goes back and if we don't want to regret for the past we should care about our "account".
