TEMPUS FUGIT

Can you believe that the last month of the year is here already?


Tempus fugit is Latin for "time flies."

"Time flies when you're having fun," its said.


I say, time sure does fly when you get old. There's so much to do and so little time to do it in. I think it seems so critical as you grow older because you come to realize that time wasted is time lost -- forever.


Time is really a gift that we have received by virtue of our birth. We did nothing to deserve it. None of us knows exactly how much we have. Its best that we make use of it as best we can. Those who receive more of something should do more with it.


There is no greater gift that we can give to others than our time. To give some of your wealth is nothing compared to your time. You can create more and more wealth but your time is limited. Every day you have less of it. Use it wisely and share it joyfully.
