Last week I asked if anyone had seen (or had in their possession) the written piece about “time”. I received responses from: Lou Ann Gilhooly, Chris McGuire and Marie Mann. Thank you for participating, all three will receive Starbucks gift cards!
Marie filled in the sentences that needed help with…
If you want to know the difference a week makes, ask someone who has to weigh in for Weight Watchers.
If you want to know the difference a day makes, ask Colorado natives why they don’t mind the winters.
Chris wrote:
If you want to know the difference a decade makes, ask an eleven year old.
If you want to know the difference a week makes, ask someone who is ready to go on vacation
If you want to know the difference a day makes, ask someone who showed up for their job interview a day late.
Lou Ann had the original prose which reads:
To realize the value of ONE YEAR: Ask a student who has failed his exams.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH: Ask a mother who has given birth to a pre-mature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK: Ask an editor of a weekly.
To realize the value of ONE DAY: Ask a daily wage laborer.
To realize the value of ONE HOUR: Ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of ONE MINUTE: Ask a person who has missed the train.
To realize the value of ONE SECOND: Ask a person who has survived an accident.
To realize the value of ONE MILLI-SECOND: Ask the person who has won a silver medal in Olympics.
To realize the value of ONE MICRO-SECOND: Ask NASA's Team of scientists.
Treasure every moment that you have! And remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present!!
