Time

We always said we dun have enough time in a day. We wish we have 48 hours per day instead of 24 hours. But given with all the time, did we treasure the time we have or just it slip through our fingers? How much time we wasted on doing irrelevant things, going into unnecessary details. Randy Pausch wrote "The Last Lecture" for his children. Sadly, he passed away on 25th July 2008 but he wasted no time to do the unnecessary. He chooses to save that 10 - 15mins of arguing with the cashier to refund his $16 plus double-charge receipts for other more important things, things that matter. As I read, it reflected on us including myself, how often we neglect or fall short to see what's the important things and get all too occupied with the small details in our lives.

Time is all you have. And you may find one day that you have less than what you think.

Treasure Time.
