Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with 
$86,400. 
It carries over no balance from day to day.  Every evening 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. Its 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 good purpose. It carries over no 
balance.  It allows no overdraft. 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 going back. There is no 
drawing against the"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 realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade. 

To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to 
premature baby. 

To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper. 

To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to 
meet. 

To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the train. 

To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided an 
accident. 

To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver 
medal in 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. And 
remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is history. 
Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the 
present!! 

It's National Friendship Week.  Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. 
They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear. 
They share a word of praise, and they always want to open their heart to 
us. Show your friends how much you care..... Send this to everyone you 
consider a FRIEND. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a 
circle of friends. 

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP WEEK!!!!!!!!!
