Analysis of Somthing to think about



To relize the value of ten years,
Ask a newly divorced couple.
To relize the value of four years,
Ask two now single high-school sweet hearts.
To relize the value of one year,
Ask a student who has failed a final exam.
To relize the value of nine months,
aSk a mother who gave birth to a still born.
To relize the value of one week,
Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.
To relize the value of one hour,
Ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To relize the value of one second,
Ask a person who has survived an accident.
To relize the value of one millisecond,
Ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.
Times waits for no one.
Treasure every moment you have.
You will treasrue it even more,
when you can share it with somone special.
