Time is Precious

To understand the value of a year, ask a student who has failed an exam at the end of the year. To understand the value of a month ask a mother, who has given birth prematurely. To understand the value of a week, ask the editor of weekly. To understand the value of an hour, ask a young couple in love who are impatiently waiting to see each other again. To understand the value of a minute, ask someone who just missed a train, bus, or a plane. To understand the value of a second, ask someone who has survived an accident. To understand the value of a millisecond, ask someone who has just won a silver medal at the Olyimpic Games.
