Time is precious. Each of us is allotted a fixed amount of time, and like the sand in a hour glass it never stops flowing. We can add more money, things and people to our lives, but not time. There is only 24 hours in a day, and our days are numbered. I am very guilty of wasting time and putting things off for later. Plan your life, but remember that now is the only time that really matters. Use it, or loose it, forever!

It is a crime
that this thing called time
doggedly run out and take
with it this life of mine.

Today is my favorite,
a gift called the present.
Yesterday is a close second,
and tomorrow is nothing but credit.

For tomorrow we must plan
and yesterday is reduced to a memory.
Only in the present do we add to our story 
making now the time to live as hard as you can.

When the end of the road has come
I want to know that I am really done,
and that I used every moment of my time
to make you happy, beautiful goddess of mine.
