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, its name is TIME..

Every morning, it credits you 86,400 seconds. Every night, it writes off a loss. Whatever of this you 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 happiness and health. The clock is running. Make the most of today...

Amen, as I learn more about the progress of Parkinson's disease, those seconds become increasingly important to spend well.
