This Group is for Hens only. A place where we can share and flock together:) May friendships grow here.
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 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 has failed his final exam.
To realize the value of one month,
ask the parent of a premature baby.
To realize the value of one week,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of one day,
ask a daily wage laborer who has a large family to feed.
To realize the value of one hour,
ask lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of one minute,
ask a person who has missed the train, the bus, or a plane.
To realize the value of one second,
ask a person who has survived an accident.
To realize the value of one millisecond,
ask the person who has won a silver medal at the Olympics.
Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time. And remember that time waits for no one.

Good morning.81 and climbing this afternoon. Joanne I hope you and Mario had a lovely wedding anniversary! Sounds like a very worthwhile treat :-)There was just the 4 of us at ours at Bromley registry office. Yeah if there's a huge fire all crew at fire stations in the area and outside the area if needed will be called in to help. Doug and I bought a walking treadmill. I did 45 minutes...
I guess its about balance, i am ashamed to admit i easily spend hours and hours on the pc, it seems to hypnotise me and i zone out!
i try not to think being here is a waste, but it might keep me form some other projects?
Healing hugs & prayers,
Marci
Thanks for reminding us.
Last night we had Chinese for dinner. This is how my fortune cookie message read, "it is not the years in your life, but the life in your years that count"
When I look at my life these days I don't feel I accomplish much. This fortune put it in perspective for me.
I look at all my years and I don't feel like a failure because I haven't accomplished as much as I used to.
I have much left to give. I just wish I could use each of those milliseconds,seconds, minutes, and hours each day to the good of others. I get tired.
Hugs!!!
