Spending Time

Good morning ! 

Over the weekend, I jotted down a few quotes

I wanted to share, and when I went to look for them...

they weren't to be found.

However, this little gem popped up, and I thought 

it would be a good one to share today.

It seems fitting after our weekend visiting

some of my hubby's friends, and classmates from Vet. school.

We were gathered at a memorial service after a sudden loss of one of their own.

It was very obvious that this man "Bud"

used his time wisely from all the wonderful stories told. 

He left quite an imprint on his community and beyond.

He left one on me.

' Imagine if you had a bank account that was magically

credited with $86,400.00 each and every morning.

There's just one catch.

It carries over no balance from one day to the next.

So at the end of the day, whatever balance is left over

is deleted. Disappears. Lost.

If you had a bank account like that,

what would you do?

Spend each and every dollar, each and every day... right?

You wouldn't want even a cent to go to waste if you could help it.

The thing is...

we all actually have a bank like this,

it's called time.

Every morning it credit's you with 86,400 seconds.

We all get a fresh set of 86,400 seconds to use

every single day.

But whatever we don't use each day,

we can't get it back.

There's no rollover till the next day.

There's no borrowing time, or saving deposits for a later day.

The time we have today, is the time we have today.

That is that.

But how we choose to spend our time,

how we choose to manage our time,

that's entirely up to us.

So why wouldn't you want to make the most of it?

Our time is valuable. It's precious in fact.

So don't waste the time you have here

doing things that aren't important to you.

Don't waste the time worrying about things you can't control.

Because you can never get that time back.

Manage that time wisely. 

Spend it on what really matters to you.

What makes a positive impact for you?

Savor it. Relish it.

And make the most of it today.'
