Maybe time stands still for grandchildren and grandparents. |
Time-There is never enough! Have you ever watched your children "scurry" around. They seem to have so much less time than we did when our families were young. I was thinking about that one week-end as I watched my son and his wife clean house, take care of the yard, be parents, be consumers, and be husband and wife. Nothing was really neglected but nothing was given a large block of time, including the children. The next week I had the following in my email from a friend: Time To realize the value of one year: Ask a student who failed a final exam. To realize the value of one month: Ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby. To realize the value of one week: Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper. To realize the value of one hour: Ask the lovers who are waiting to meet. To realize the value of one minute: Ask the person who has missed the plane. To realize the value of one second: Ask a person who has just avoided an accident. To realize the value of one millisecond: Ask the person who has just won a silver medal in the Olympics. |
