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!”
Amen, brother!
