Yesterday was a History. Tomorrow is a Mystery. Today is a Gift.

Imagine there is a bank account that credits your 

account each morning with $86,400. It carries over 

no balance from day to day.

Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of 

the balance you failed to use during the day. What 

would you do? Draw out every cent, of course?

Each of us has such a bank. It's name is TIME.

Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.

Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this 

you have failed to invest to  a good purpose. It 

carries over no balance. It allows no over draft.

Each day it opens a new account for you.

Each night it burns the remains of the day.

If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.

There is no drawing against "tomorrow."

You must live in the present on today's deposits. 

Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, 

happiness and success!

The clock is running!! Make the most of today.

To realise the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student 

who failed a grade.

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 the 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 a person 

who just missed a train.

To realise the value of ONE SECOND, ask someone 

who just avoided an accident.

To realise the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the 

person who won a silver medal at the Olympics.

Treasure every moment that you have! 

And treasure it more because you shared it 

with someone special, special enough to spend 

your time with. 

And remember time waits for no one.

Yesterday is history. 

Tomorrow is a mystery. 

Today is a gift.

That's why its called the present.
