Take Time

Take Time: Take time to think- It is the source of all power. Take time to read- It is the fountain of wisdom.   Take time to play- It is the source of perpetual youth. Take time to be quiet- It is the opportunity to seek God.   Take time to be aware- It is the opportunity to help others. Take time to love and be loved- It is God’s greatest gift.   Take time to laugh- It is the music of the soul. Take time to be friendly- It is the road to happiness.   Take time to dream- It is what the future is made of. Take time to pray- It is the greatest power on earth.   Take time to give- It is too short a day to be selfish. Take time to work- It is the price of success.   (I do not know the name of the author of this poem, but I thought that it was worthwhile reprinting here because it has a lot of meaning.)
