To realise the value of one year: Ask a student who has failed a final exam. 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 lovers who are waiting to meet. To realise the value of one minute: Ask the 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 one millisecond: Ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics. Time waits for no one. Treasure every moment you have. You will treasure it even more when you share it with someone special.
