Ok- I am passing along something received in an email.



No- I didn't come up with this myself, but it hits home.   Happy Sunday!


SURPRISE!!!

Imagine that you had won the following prize in a contest:  Each morning, your bank would deposit $86,400 in your personal account.  But this prize has rules:  Everything that you don’t spend each day will be taken away from you.  You must spend it all, and the bank can end the game at any time by closing the account.

What would you do?  You would probably buy everything you wanted, right?  Not only for yourself but for all the people you care about, even for people you didn’t know, because how could you spend it all on yourself, right?  You would try to spend every penny because then you knew it would be replenished in the morning right?

Actually, this game is real!  And each of us is already a winner of this prize but we just can’t see it.  Why?  The prize is Time!  Each morning, we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift from life, and when we go to sleep at night, what we haven’t used up that day is forever lost, and yesterday is forever gone.  Each morning, the account is refilled, but your account can be dissolved at any time without warning! … So, what will you do with your 86,400 seconds, which are worth so much more than the same amount in dollars?

Think about – be happy, love deeply and enjoy every second, because time races by much quicker than you think.  Here’s wishing you a wonderful and beautiful day.  Start “spending!”
