Tick...Tick...Tick

As I saw the seconds ticking by on the stopwatch for the past two days, it just dawned on me how every second and minute tick by so quickly and so unknowingly in my life. How much does each one of us value time? Thought of this which I have received in an email...

To realise the value of one year, ask a student who repeat a year in school.
To realise the value of one month, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
To realise the value of one hour, ask the long-lost friends who are waiting to meet.
To realise the value of one minute, ask the person who missed the train.
To realise the value of one second, ask the person who just avoided an accident.
To realise the value of one millisecond, ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.
To realise the value of a lifetime, ask the person who has contracted a terminal disease.

Time really waits for no man...
