The value of life

To realise the value of a sister/brother, ask someone who doesn't have one.
To realise the value of ten years, ask a newly divorced couple.
To realise the value of four years, ask a graduate.
To realise the value of one year, ask a student who has failed a final exam.
To realise the value of nine months, ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.
To realise the value of one month, ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.
To realise the value of one week, ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realise the value of one hour, ask the couple who turned backs and slept without a word.
To realise the value of one minute, ask a person who has missed the train, bus or plane.
To realise the value of one second, ask a person who has survived an accident.
To realise the value of a friend, lose one and see.



Time waits for no-one.  Treasure every moment you have.  You will treasure it even more when you can share it with someone special.  Remember, hold on tight to the ones you love!
