The Bank of Time

Nov 19, 2005 18:00

If you had a bank that credited your account each morning with $86,400.00 that carried over no balance from day to day and allowed you to keep no cash in your account and every evening cancelled whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day, what would you do? Draw out every cent of course! Well, you have such a bank, and its name is Time. Every morning it credits your account with 86,400 seconds. Every night it rules off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to no good purpose. It carries over no balances. It allows no overdrafts. Each day it opens a new account with you. Each night it burns the records of the day. If you fail to use the days deposits the loss is yours. There is no going back. There is no drawing against the tomorrow. You must live in the present- on todays deposits. Invest it so as to get from the utmost in health, happiness, and success.
