Time flies, and before we know it, we lose it. But if we know how, we can use it wisely too.

If you value every minute,

And the sixty seconds in it,

If you value every hour,

And its sixty minute power

If you dare to live each day,

Like there is no other way,

If you can fill up one week,

Like the brave, unlike the meek,

If your one month can fill,

Your plans, your ideas, turned real at will,

If your one year can hold,

Dreams of desire turned to gold

Then, my friend, you can proudly say,

There, I lived, my life this way

The best I got, I had my say

Because, the best I gave to every day
