It’s something that we always check to keep up with our schedule. It’s something that we race against to beat deadlines. It’s something that we often take for granted.

W H Y?

Because it runs for itself. Involuntarily, it doesn’t have the concept of stopping or even slowing down. It moves at a constant, predictable pace. It’s inevitable.

Humans as we are, we tend to let time slip away thinking that we will never ever run out of it. Time became a commoner. An ordinary occurence that we people carelessly don’t mind because of the mentality that whatever we do, we can’t bend its infinity.

Nevertheless, there are still (only) a few people who knows its true value (or is forced to value it because they have no other choice but to do so).

To a DYING person, time is of the essence. Having to know that in any moment, you’ll stop  breathing and your heart will stop pumping, is indeed, a horrible torture to bear. If you could only do things which you have not done or have failed to do within that limited span of time, you would. The sad thing is, there are no extensions. You can only do so much.

It is when we know that we don’t have the control over something definite makes us value what we have more. It is the fear of losing everything that we’ve worked hard for makes us realized its importance.

Tell me…

Do we really have to lose what we have before we learn to appreciate them?

ONLY time will tell.

REMEMBER, regrets don’t come in the beginning.

So make the most out of what you have NOW, no matter how small, simple, typical it is.

BECAUSE you’ll never know when the sand in your HOURGLASS will be depleted.
