A day is like a bank..
The fairest bank of all..
It doesn't care if you're rich..
It doesn't care if you're poor..
As long as you live, it will treat you fair and square..
Where time is the currency,
24 hours is given to you..
And to your discretion it is left..
If you'll spend it wisely or for naught..
Tick, tock, tick, tock..
Time is precious, time is gold..
No refunds, no returns..
Once it passes, you can never get it back..
So what would you do?
To each and every second given to you?
Will you wave it goodbye as it idly passes by?
Or barely notice it while you're too busy?
Too busy entertaining yourself with games that will take you nowhere..
Too busy shutting yourself away,
as you "connect" to the whole world all day..
Or too busy complaining, sick worrying about the problems you face..
Will you use it in an endless pursuit?
To earn money more than you will ever need..
To chase "true" love that will come around..
Or to find the "happiness" that will never leave you content..
But will you ever use it to live your life?
To do the things you enjoy the most..
To live of with just what you need..
And to spend time with people that makes you happy and content..
Because then, I must warn you..
sooner or later, one day or another..
You'll be surprised..
Tick, tock, tick, tock..
Time's up.
"You don't have to live forever, You just have to LIVE."
